Starting the Divorce Process
To file for divorce in Georgia, you must have lived in the state for at least six months prior to filing a divorce action. If you meet the residency requirement, you can file a petition or complaint for divorce with the Court Clerk for the Superior Court in the county in which your spouse lives. We can guide you through the divorce process and help you understand your rights and obligations.
Issues at Stake in a Divorce
The major issues that need to be resolved in a divorce are: dividing marital property and assets, debt allocation, determining eligibility for alimony and amount of support, and child custody and child support. We can help you navigate these issues and reach a fair and equitable resolution.
Alimony Payments
Alimony or spousal support is court-ordered financial assistance provided by one spouse to another. We can help you determine if you are eligible for alimony or will owe alimony payments. In Georgia, alimony is based on certain factors, including the standard of living established during the marriage, the age, physical and emotional condition of the parties, the financial resources of each party, and the contribution of each party to the marriage.
Dividing Marital Property and Other Assets
Georgia is an "equitable distribution" state, which means that all marital property acquired during the marriage is divided equally. We can help you determine how to divide marital property and other assets fairly and equitably.
Child Custody
When making custody determinations, Georgia puts the best interests of the children first. We can help you negotiate a custody arrangement that is fair and sustainable.
