Frequently Asked Questions

How does the divorce process work in Carroll/Douglas County?

In Carroll/Douglas County, a divorce is filed in Superior Court. Georgia requires a 30-day waiting period after filing before a divorce can be finalized. If the divorce is contested, the process may take considerably longer depending on the complexity of issues like child custody, property division, and alimony. Met Lane can guide you through every step.

How is property divided in a GA divorce?

Georgia follows the equitable distribution model, which means property is divided fairly—but not necessarily equally. The court considers factors including each spouse's financial condition, contributions to the marriage, and earning capacity. Our goal is to protect your fair share of marital assets.

What factors determine child custody in Georgia?

Georgia courts determine custody based on the "best interest of the child" standard, considering factors including each parent's home environment, relationship with the child, mental and physical health, ability to provide stability, and the child's own wishes if they are of sufficient age.
