For how long does a normal divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be completed 31 days after the defendant has been served with required paperwork. We can get a settlement agreement sent earlier than that, but the judge is required to wait until the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to finalize the documents.

A case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months if a hearing in front of a judge is not needed but a number of problems need to be dealt with.

A variety of cases are fixed at the mediation stage or through other formal settlements.

What is the distinction between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce in Forest Park?

An uncontested divorce case is one in which a signed settlement agreement is submitted to the clerk's office at the time the complaint for divorce is filed.

Why doesn't my situation qualify?

If your divorce consists of concerns such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the division of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is usually not an option. It is tough to forecast whether your case can be dealt with swiftly or if it will take considerably longer to complete.
