How long does a normal divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be finalized 31 days after the defendant has actually been served with documents. We can get a settlement agreement sent earlier than that, however the judge is mandated to wait up until the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to settle the documentation.

A case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months if a final hearing in front of a judge is not required but a number of issues require to be fixed.

A variety of cases are resolved at the mediation phase or through other official negotiations.

What is the distinction between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce in Carrollton?

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 submitted.

Why doesn't my case qualify?

If your divorce includes concerns such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the dividing of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is often not an option. It is hard to anticipate whether your case can be handled quickly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
