The length of time does a common divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be finalized 31 days after the defendant has been served with documents. 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 complete the documentation.

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

A number of cases are resolved at the mediation stage or through other official negotiations.

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

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 filed.

Why doesn't my divorce qualify?

If your divorce includes 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 a choice. It is hard to forecast whether your case can be managed quickly or if it will take considerably longer to complete.
