How long does a normal divorce take?

Georgia law permits a divorce case to be completed 31 days after the defendant has actually 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 settle the documentation.

If a final hearing in front of a judge is not needed however 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.

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

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 submitted.

Why doesn't my case qualify?

If your divorce includes concerns such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the division of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is usually not an option. It is difficult to anticipate whether your case can be managed promptly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
