The length of time does a normal divorce take?

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

If a hearing in front of a judge is not required however a variety of issues have to be resolved, a case might take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

A number of cases are dealt with at the mediation phase or through other official settlements.

On the occasion that your partner is unwilling to settle in a reasonable way, more intricate divorce cases can take anywhere from 6 months to 18 months or perhaps longer to be finished.

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

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. All other cases are lawfully considered contested divorces.

How come my situation doesn't qualify under your flat-fee package?

If your divorce includes concerns 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 often not a choice. It is difficult to anticipate whether your case can be managed swiftly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
