How long does a normal divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be settled 31 days after the defendant has been served with paperwork. We can get a settlement agreement submitted 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 paperwork.

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

A variety of cases are resolved at the mediation stage or through other formal negotiations.

What is the distinction between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce in Norcross?

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 submitted.

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 dividing of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is most likely not an option. It is hard to forecast whether your case can be dealt with quickly or if it will take considerably longer to complete.
