The length of time does a typical divorce take?

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

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

A number of cases are solved at the mediation stage or through other formal negotiations.

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

An uncontested divorce case is one in which a signed settlement agreement is sent to the clerk's office at the time the complaint for divorce is filed.

Why doesn't my divorce qualify?

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 property, a flat-fee divorce is most likely not a choice. It is challenging to forecast whether your case can be dealt with quickly or if it will take considerably longer to complete.
