Why doesn't my divorce qualify?

If your divorce consists of issues 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 an alternative. It is hard to anticipate whether your case can be dealt with swiftly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
