The length of time does a typical divorce take?

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

If a final hearing in front of a judge is not needed but a number of problems have to be fixed, a case might take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

A number of cases are solved at the mediation phase or through other official negotiations.

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

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 spousal support or not agreeing on the dividing of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is most likely not a choice. It is challenging to anticipate whether your case can be handled swiftly or if it will take significantly longer to complete.
