How long does a typical divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be settled 31 days after the defendant has actually been served with required 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 finalize the documents.

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

A variety of cases are fixed at the mediation phase or through other official settlements.

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

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 case 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 items, a flat-fee divorce is most likely not a choice. It is difficult to anticipate whether your case can be handled quickly or if it will take substantially longer to complete.
