How long does a common 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 complete the documents.

A case might take anywhere from 2 to 6 months if a hearing in front of a judge is not needed but a number of problems require to be resolved.

A variety of cases are fixed at the mediation stage or through other official settlements.

What is the distinction 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 submitted.

Why doesn't my situation 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 usually not a choice. It is difficult to forecast whether your case can be handled promptly or if it will take considerably longer to finish.
