How long does a normal divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be finalized 31 days after the defendant has been served with paperwork. We can get a settlement agreement submitted earlier than that, but the judge is mandated to wait till the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to settle the paperwork.

If a hearing in front of a judge is not needed but a number of concerns have to be dealt with, a case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

A number of cases are resolved at the mediation stage or through other official 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 submitted.

How come my situation doesn't qualify for your flat-fee prices?

If your divorce consists of problems such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over spousal support or not agreeing on the division of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is most likely not a choice. It is hard to forecast whether your case can be handled quickly or if it will take significantly longer to complete.
