How long does a normal divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be completed 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 required to wait till the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to settle the documents.

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

A variety of cases are fixed at the mediation stage or through other official settlements.

In the event that your partner hesitates to settle in an affordable way, more complicated divorce cases can take anywhere from 6 months to 18 months or perhaps longer to be finished.

Exactly what is the difference between an uncontested divorce and contested divorce in Fulton County?

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 lawfully considered contested divorces.

How come my situation doesn't qualify for your flat-fee prices?

If your divorce consists of concerns 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 tough to anticipate whether your case can be dealt with quickly or if it will take significantly longer to finish.
