FAQs

Do Both Parties Need Their Own Attorney?

It is advisable for both parties to have their own attorneys, especially if children and property are involved. In simple uncontested divorces where the parties are in agreement on all issues, one attorney can draft the documents for the parties, file them and represent the plaintiff at the final hearing. One attorney cannot represent both parties.

Can I Get An Annulment ?

Annulments in Georgia are rare. They can be granted if the marriage was void to begin with. For instance, you can obtain an annulment if your spouse was already married when you married and there are no children from your marriage.

How Is Child Support Determined?

Like many states, Georgia has adopted a child support calculator (worksheet and schedules) to determine child support. The non-custodial parent pays child support to the custodial parent. In some cases, such as shared custody cases, deviations from the child support amount are appropriate. This is best left to experienced attorneys, as the Court determines whether a deviation is warranted based on best interests of the child.

How Long Does It Take To Finalize A Divorce In Georgia?

It depends on the parties. If they are in agreement on all issues, the divorce can be granted 31 days after filing an uncontested divorce. If the divorce is contested, there is no set time. It can take months or even years. Litigating a contested divorce costs thousands of dollars and can take years. That is why the parties are well advised to consider an uncontested divorce.
