How long does a typical divorce take?

Georgia law permits a divorce case to be settled 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 till 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 required but a number of problems have to be fixed, a case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

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

Exactly what is the difference between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce in Lilburn?

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.

How come my situation doesn't qualify under your flat-fee package?

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 option. It is hard to forecast whether your case can be handled quickly or if it will take considerably longer to complete.
