The length of time does a typical divorce take?

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

A case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months if a hearing in front of a judge is not needed but a number of concerns need to be solved.

A number of cases are solved at the mediation phase or through other formal negotiations.

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

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 consists of issues 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 an option. It is tough to anticipate whether your case can be dealt with promptly or if it will take considerably longer to complete.
