The length of time does a typical divorce take?

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

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

A number of cases are dealt with at the mediation stage or through other formal settlements.

What is the difference between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce in Forsyth County?

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

Why doesn't my situation qualify?

If your divorce includes issues such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the dividing of marital property, a flat-fee divorce is often not a choice. It is challenging to anticipate whether your case can be managed quickly or if it will take significantly longer to finish.
