The length of time does a typical divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be finalized 31 days after the defendant has actually been served with required 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 settle the paperwork.

A case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months if a hearing in front of a judge is not needed however a number of problems need to be resolved.

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

If your spouse is unwilling to settle in a reasonable manner, more intricate divorce cases can take anywhere from 6 months to 18 months or even longer to be finalized.

Exactly what is the difference between an uncontested divorce and 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 filed. All other cases are legally considered contested divorces.

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

If your divorce consists of problems 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 most likely not an alternative. It is difficult to forecast whether your case can be handled quickly or if it will take significantly longer to finish.
