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 paperwork. We can get a settlement agreement sent earlier than that, but the judge is mandated to wait up 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 final hearing in front of a judge is not required but a number of issues require to be fixed.

A variety of cases are fixed at the mediation stage or through other official negotiations.

What is the distinction between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce in Fulton County?

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 divorce doesn't qualify for your flat-fee rates?

If your divorce consists of issues such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the dividing of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is usually not an alternative. It is hard to forecast whether your case can be handled quickly or if it will take considerably longer to finish.
