The length of time does a common divorce take?

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

A case might take anywhere from 2 to 6 months if a hearing in front of a judge is not needed however a number of problems need to be fixed.

A number of cases are dealt with at the mediation phase or through other formal negotiations.

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

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.

Why doesn't my divorce qualify?

If your divorce consists of issues 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 challenging to anticipate whether your case can be managed promptly or if it will take considerably longer to complete.
