How long does a normal divorce take?

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

If a hearing in front of a judge is not needed but a number of problems need to be dealt with, a case might take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

A variety of cases are resolved at the mediation stage or through other official settlements.

Exactly what is the difference 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 submitted.

How come my divorce doesn't qualify for your flat-fee package?

If your divorce includes concerns 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 most likely not an alternative. It is difficult to forecast whether your case can be managed promptly or if it will take substantially longer to complete.
