For how long does a common divorce take?

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

A case might take anywhere from 2 to 6 months if a hearing in front of a judge is not required but a number of problems require to be solved.

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

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

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 divorce qualify?

If your divorce includes issues such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over spousal support or not agreeing on the dividing of marital property, a flat-fee divorce is often not an option. It is difficult to forecast whether your case can be dealt with quickly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
