How long does a typical divorce take?

Georgia law permits a divorce case to be finalized 31 days after the defendant has been served with documents. We can get a settlement agreement sent earlier than that, however the judge is mandated to wait up until the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to settle the documents.

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

A number of cases are dealt with at the mediation phase or through other official settlements.

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

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 divorce qualify?

If your divorce includes issues 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 most likely not an alternative. It is tough to anticipate whether your case can be managed swiftly or if it will take significantly longer to complete.
