How long does a normal divorce take?

Georgia law permits 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, however the judge is required to wait until the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to complete the documentation.

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

A variety of cases are resolved at the mediation phase or through other formal negotiations.

Exactly what is the difference 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 filed.

Why doesn't my divorce qualify?

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