How Long Will it Take to Get My Low Cost Simple Uncontested Divorce?
1. If you and your spouse are living together or have not been separated for at least two years…
After Attorney Kovach has proof that your spouse received his/her divorce complaint in the mail, you must wait 90 days (about 3 months) until the next set of documents are sent to you and your spouse. Processing and filing these documents takes about four weeks (or more depending on how fast your spouse sends the papers back to us). From there, it takes about 4 to 6 more weeks for the court to finalize the divorce and issue a divorce decree. From start to finish you are looking approximately 5 to 6 months. See our Rush Delivery Services below, which can help to reduce the length of time even more.
2. If you and your spouse have been separated for two years or longer…
You must wait twenty-one (21) days after we receive proof that your spouse received his/her copy of the divorce complaint, thus reducing the time you will have to wait for the divorce decree by several weeks. From start to finish, this process can take from approximately 4 to 6 weeks. Naturally any delay in receiving documents in the office, will delay the divorce.
