For how long does a common divorce take?

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

If a final hearing in front of a judge is not required but a variety of problems need to be solved, a case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

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

Exactly what is the distinction between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce in Forsyth 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 case doesn't qualify for your flat-fee rates?

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