How long does a normal divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be completed 31 days after the defendant has actually been served with paperwork. We can get a settlement agreement sent earlier than that, but the judge is required to wait up until the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to settle the documentation.

A case might take anywhere from 2 to 6 months if a hearing in front of a judge is not required but a number of issues need to be fixed.

A variety of cases are dealt with at the mediation stage or through other formal settlements.

In the event that your spouse is unwilling to settle in a reasonable manner, more complicated divorce cases can take anywhere from 6 months to 18 months or even longer to be finished.

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

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. All other cases are legally considered contested divorces.

Why doesn't my divorce qualify?

If your divorce consists of issues such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the dividing of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is usually not a choice. It is tough to anticipate whether your case can be handled promptly or if it will take substantially longer to complete.
