The length of time does a typical divorce take?

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

A case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months if a hearing in front of a judge is not required but a number of concerns need to be solved.

A number of cases are resolved at the mediation stage or through other official negotiations.

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

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.

How come my divorce doesn't qualify for your flat-fee rates?

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