How long does a common divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be finalized 31 days after the defendant has been served with documents. We can get a settlement agreement submitted earlier than that, however the judge is required to wait till the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to settle the documentation.

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

A variety of cases are dealt with at the mediation phase or through other official settlements.

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

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.

How come my situation doesn't qualify under your flat-fee prices?

If your divorce consists of 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 usually not an option. It is difficult to forecast whether your case can be dealt with promptly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
