How long does a typical divorce take?

Georgia law permits a divorce case to be settled 31 days after the defendant has actually been served with documents. 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 settle the documents.

A case might take anywhere from 2 to 6 months if a hearing in front of a judge is not needed however a number of problems need to be resolved.

A number of cases are solved at the mediation stage or through other formal settlements.

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

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 filed.

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 division of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is usually not an alternative. It is hard to forecast whether your case can be dealt with swiftly or if it will take significantly longer to finish.
