How long does a common divorce take?

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

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

A variety of cases are solved at the mediation phase or through other official negotiations.

If your partner hesitates to settle in an affordable manner, more complex divorce cases can take anywhere from 6 months to 18 months or perhaps longer to be finished.

Exactly what is the distinction between an uncontested divorce and contested divorce in Norcross?

An uncontested divorce case is one where a signed settlement agreement is sent to the clerk's office at the time the complaint for divorce is submitted. All other cases are legally considered contested divorces.

Why doesn't my divorce qualify?

If your divorce includes problems such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over spousal support or not agreeing on the dividing of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is usually not an alternative. It is tough to forecast whether your case can be handled promptly or if it will take substantially longer to complete.
