How long does a typical divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be finalized 31 days after the defendant has been served with paperwork. We can get a settlement agreement submitted earlier than that, but the judge is mandated to wait till the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to complete the documents.

If a hearing in front of a judge is not needed however a variety of concerns need to be dealt with, a case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

A variety of cases are solved at the mediation stage or through other official settlements.

What is the difference between an uncontested divorce and a 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.

Why doesn't my situation qualify?

If your divorce includes issues such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the dividing of marital property, a flat-fee divorce is often not an alternative. It is challenging to forecast whether your case can be handled swiftly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
