How long does a common divorce take?

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

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

A variety of cases are resolved at the mediation phase or through other formal settlements.

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

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 consists of issues such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the dividing of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is often not an option. It is tough to forecast whether your case can be managed swiftly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
