The length of time does a common divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be finalized 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 mandated to wait up until the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to finalize the paperwork.

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

A number of cases are solved at the mediation phase 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 submitted to the clerk's office at the time the complaint for divorce is filed.

Why doesn't my situation qualify?

If your divorce consists of concerns such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over spousal support or not agreeing on the division of marital property, a flat-fee divorce is usually not a choice. It is tough to anticipate whether your case can be managed swiftly or if it will take considerably longer to complete.
