How long does a typical divorce take?

Georgia law permits a divorce case to be finalized 31 days after the defendant has been served with paperwork. We can get a settlement agreement sent earlier than that, however the judge is required to wait until the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to settle the documents.

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

A variety of cases are dealt with at the mediation stage or through other formal settlements.

Exactly 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.

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

If your divorce includes issues such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the division of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is most likely not an alternative. It is difficult to anticipate whether your case can be dealt with swiftly or if it will take considerably longer to complete.
