The length of time does a common divorce take?

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

If a hearing in front of a judge is not needed however a variety of concerns have to be resolved, a case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

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

On the occasion that your partner is unwilling to settle in an affordable way, more complicated divorce cases can take anywhere from 6 months to 18 months or perhaps longer to be resolved.

What is the difference between an uncontested divorce and contested divorce in Warner Robins?

An uncontested divorce case is one where a signed settlement agreement is submitted to the clerk's office at the time the complaint for divorce is filed. All other cases are legally considered contested divorces.

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

If your divorce includes problems such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the division of marital property, a flat-fee divorce is usually not a choice. It is hard to anticipate whether your case can be managed quickly or if it will take substantially longer to complete.
