How long does a common divorce take?

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

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

A number of cases are solved at the mediation phase or through other official settlements.

Exactly what is the difference 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 filed.

Why doesn't my case qualify?

If your divorce consists of concerns 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 alternative. It is difficult to forecast whether your case can be dealt with quickly or if it will take considerably longer to complete.
