The length of time does a common divorce take?

Georgia law allows 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 mandated to wait up until the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to finalize the documentation.

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 require to be resolved.

A number of cases are fixed at the mediation stage or through other official settlements.

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 sent 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 property, a flat-fee divorce is usually not a choice. It is hard to forecast whether your case can be managed swiftly or if it will take considerably longer to finish.
