For how long does a normal divorce take?

Georgia law permits a divorce case to be settled 31 days after the defendant has been served with documents. We can get a settlement agreement submitted earlier than that, however 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 final hearing in front of a judge is not needed but a number of problems require to be resolved.

A number of cases are resolved at the mediation phase or through other formal negotiations.

In the event that your partner is unwilling to settle in a reasonable way, more complex divorce cases can take anywhere from 6 months to 18 months or perhaps longer to be finished.

What is the distinction between an uncontested divorce and 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. All other cases are lawfully considered contested divorces.

How come my situation doesn't qualify for your flat-fee rates?

If your divorce consists of issues 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 option. It is difficult to forecast whether your case can be managed promptly or if it will take significantly longer to complete.
