The length of time does a normal divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be completed 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 until the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to complete the paperwork.

If a final hearing in front of a judge is not required but a variety of issues need to be dealt with, a case might take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

A number of cases are fixed at the mediation phase or through other formal settlements.

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

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 consists of issues 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 alternative. It is hard to anticipate whether your case can be managed quickly or if it will take substantially longer to complete.
