The length of time does a common divorce take?

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

If a hearing in front of a judge is not needed however a variety of issues need to be fixed, a case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

A variety of cases are dealt with at the mediation stage or through other formal settlements.

What is the distinction between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce in Savannah?

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 submitted.

Why doesn't my situation qualify?

If your divorce includes problems such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over spousal support or not agreeing on the dividing of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is most likely not an alternative. It is challenging to forecast whether your case can be dealt with promptly or if it will take considerably longer to finish.
