For how long does a normal divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be settled 31 days after the defendant has been served with required paperwork. We can get a settlement agreement sent 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 documents.

If a final hearing in front of a judge is not required but a number of problems have to be solved, a case might take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

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

Exactly what is the distinction between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce in Tucker?

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.

Why doesn't my case qualify?

If your divorce consists of problems such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over spousal support or not agreeing on the division of marital property, a flat-fee divorce is most likely not a choice. It is hard to forecast whether your case can be handled quickly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
