For how long does a common divorce take?

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

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

A number of cases are dealt with at the mediation stage or through other official negotiations.

What is the difference between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce in Carroll County?

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.

How come my situation 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 most likely not an option. It is difficult to forecast whether your case can be managed quickly or if it will take considerably longer to finish.
