Family Law Questions
Clear answers before you make major decisions.
Every family is different, but understanding the general legal framework can help you prepare for a productive consultation.
Ask Blake A QuestionAn uncontested divorce may be finalized after Georgia’s required waiting period, although court schedules and administrative steps may extend the timeline. Contested cases can take several months or longer depending on the issues and level of conflict.
Custody is determined according to the best interests of the child. Courts may consider the child’s relationship with each parent, stability, caregiving history, parental fitness and other circumstances affecting the child.
No. Georgia uses equitable distribution, meaning marital assets are divided fairly based on the circumstances—not necessarily in equal halves. Separate property must first be distinguished from marital property.
An unmarried father generally must complete the legitimation process before Georgia courts can grant legal custody or visitation rights. Being listed on the birth certificate or paying support may not be enough by itself.
A modification may be possible when there has been a substantial change in circumstances affecting the child, a parent’s income, relocation or another material issue addressed by the existing order.
Cost is influenced by the number of disputed issues, complexity of assets, custody conflict, expert involvement and whether the parties can resolve matters through negotiation rather than prolonged litigation.
