How long does a normal divorce take?

Georgia law allows 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, but the judge is mandated to wait till 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 concerns need to be resolved, a case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

A variety of cases are solved at the mediation phase or through other official negotiations.

In case your spouse is unwilling to settle in a reasonable way, more complex divorce cases can take anywhere from 6 months to 18 months and even longer to be finished.

What is the distinction between an uncontested divorce and contested divorce in Kennesaw?

An uncontested divorce case is one where a signed settlement agreement is submitted to the clerk's office at the time the complaint for divorce is submitted. All other cases are legally considered contested divorces.

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

If your divorce includes problems such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over spousal support or not agreeing on the division of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is most likely not an option. It is hard to forecast whether your case can be managed swiftly or if it will take significantly longer to complete.
