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

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

A number of cases are solved at the mediation phase or through other formal negotiations.

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

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 situation 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 an option. It is challenging to forecast whether your case can be handled swiftly or if it will take significantly longer to finish.
