The length of time does a normal divorce take?

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

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

A number of cases are resolved at the mediation phase or through other official negotiations.

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

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 case doesn't qualify for your flat-fee rates?

If your divorce includes problems 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 often not an alternative. It is tough to anticipate whether your case can be dealt with quickly or if it will take substantially longer to complete.
