This all depends on the complexity of the divorce and whether or not the two parties are willing to come to an agreement concerning separation of assets, alimony, child support, custody and visitation.
If the two parties filing divorce are willing to come to an agreement known as an uncontested divorce. The process is much faster and can be completed within two to three months from the date the paperwork is submitted to our firm.
However, if the two parties filing for divorce fail to come to an agreement before trial, the process can take much longer. This is known as a contested divorce.
When this happens a judge will make the final decisions as far as distribution of marital assets, child support, custody, visitation alimony, and any other request made by both parties filing for divorce.
