For how long does a typical divorce take?

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

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

A variety of cases are solved at the mediation phase or through other formal settlements.

In the event that your spouse hesitates to settle in an affordable manner, more intricate divorce cases can take anywhere from 6 months to 18 months or perhaps longer to be resolved.

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

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. All other cases are lawfully considered contested divorces.

How come my case doesn't qualify under your flat-fee rates?

If your divorce consists of problems such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the division of marital property, a flat-fee divorce is usually not a choice. It is difficult to anticipate whether your case can be managed quickly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
