The length of time does a common 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 submitted earlier than that, however the judge is mandated to wait till the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to finalize the documents.

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

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

What is the distinction between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce in Gwinnett 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 under your flat-fee prices?

If your divorce includes 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 most likely not an option. It is hard to anticipate whether your case can be handled quickly or if it will take significantly longer to finish.
