The length of time does a common divorce take?

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

A case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months if a hearing in front of a judge is not needed however a number of problems require to be solved.

A number of cases are fixed at the mediation stage or through other formal negotiations.

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

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 filed.

Why doesn't my divorce qualify?

If your divorce includes issues such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over spousal support or not agreeing on the division of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is often not an alternative. It is hard to forecast whether your case can be dealt with promptly or if it will take considerably longer to finish.
