The length of time does a common divorce take?

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

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

A variety of cases are resolved at the mediation phase or through other official settlements.

Exactly what is the distinction between an uncontested divorce and a 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 submitted.

Why doesn't my case 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 most likely not an option. It is hard to anticipate whether your case can be handled quickly or if it will take considerably longer to complete.
