Types of Divorce
There are two types of divorce - Contested and Uncontested Divorce. If you are thinking about filing for divorce, one of the first questions an attorney will ask you is whether your divorce is going to be contested or uncontested. Often, the answer to that question is not simple.

Contested vs. Uncontested
There are two types of divorce - Contested and Uncontested Divorce. If you are thinking about filing for divorce, one of the first questions an attorney will ask you is whether your divorce is going to be contested or uncontested. Georgia laws, however, are more complex than you might imagine. Even though you may be able to agree on all or most issues, you want an experienced divorce & custody lawyer to review the terms of any agreement so that you get the outcome you seek. In particular, an uncontested divorce with minor children requires unique legal pleadings that must comply with strict Georgia Child Support Guidelines. Moreover, most counties require parties to file an executed Final Judgment Decree of Divorce, which will incorporate a Settlement Agreement, Parenting Plan, Child Support Worksheet, and Child Support Addendum, all of which must strictly comply with applicable statutes.

Contested Divorce
A contested divorce merely implies that the parties are currently unable to resolve issues related to custody, child support, alimony and equitable division of assets arising out a divorce. When the parties are unable to reconcile their differences, it is important to file for divorce to protect your rights. Even if one of the issues addressed above are unresolved, the parties will proceed with a contested divorce until such time as these matters become resolved through effective negotiations, mediation, or a Final Judgment made by the assigned Judge.

Uncontested Divorce
We work with men and women at any stage of an uncontested divorce, whether you are in the planning stage of filing for divorce, or have already filed and are looking for assistance resolving issues related to finalizing the process. We handle all issues related to or arising out of an uncontested divorce.

I just want to say I highly recommend Hobson & Hobson Law. Sarah has been a pleasure to work with and for something that took almost 3 years...she never settled for anything. The hard work and knowledge she put in was extremely helpful and the outcome turned out better than we hoped for.

Chris Hobson guided me with how to communicate with the child's mother and assured me that as long as I followed his lead my needs would be met. Now, here I am, November 2017 spending the holidays with my baby girl for the first time ever with full custody. I graciously thank Chris, I couldn't have found a better lawyer. I highly recommend him. Very professional, yet personable and gets the job done.

I have been a long-term client of Chris Hobson’s for almost 6 years now in an ongoing custody battle. He has been there every step of the way to help me understand the legal process, my rights, and options. He brings a sense of compassion to his work being that he is a family man himself. He is thorough with his work and will fight for you every step of the way. I would use their services again and would recommend them to anyone in need.
