The length of time does a typical 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, however the judge is mandated to wait until the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to settle the documentation.

A case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months if a hearing in front of a judge is not required however a number of concerns require to be fixed.

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

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

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 filed.

Why doesn't my divorce qualify?

If your divorce consists of concerns such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the division of marital property, a flat-fee divorce is often not an alternative. It is difficult to anticipate whether your case can be handled quickly or if it will take significantly longer to complete.
