How long does a normal divorce take?

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

If a final hearing in front of a judge is not required however a variety of issues need to be fixed, a case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

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

In the event that your spouse hesitates to settle in a reasonable way, more complicated divorce cases can take anywhere from 6 months to 18 months or even longer to be finished.

What is the distinction between an uncontested divorce and contested divorce in Stone Mountain?

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. All other cases are legally considered contested divorces.

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

If your divorce consists of concerns such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over spousal support or not agreeing on the dividing of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is often not a choice. It is hard to forecast whether your case can be managed promptly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
