How long does a normal divorce take?

Georgia law permits a divorce case to be settled 31 days after the defendant has been served with documents. We can get a settlement agreement sent earlier than that, but the judge is required to wait 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 final hearing in front of a judge is not required however a number of problems require to be resolved.

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

In the event that your partner is unwilling to settle in a reasonable manner, more complex 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 Roswell?

An uncontested divorce case is one where a signed settlement agreement is submitted to the clerk's office at the time the complaint for divorce is submitted. All other cases are legally considered contested divorces.

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

If your divorce includes concerns such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over spousal support or not agreeing on the division of marital property, a flat-fee divorce is often not an alternative. It is difficult to anticipate whether your case can be handled promptly or if it will take significantly longer to finish.
