For how long does a typical divorce take?

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

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

A number of cases are solved at the mediation stage or through other official settlements.

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

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.

How come my case doesn't qualify for your flat-fee prices?

If your divorce consists of problems such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over spousal support or not agreeing on the division of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is often not a choice. It is hard to forecast whether your case can be dealt with quickly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
