Pursuant to Georgia Law, there are thirteen (13) grounds upon which a complaint for divorce may be brought by one spouse against the other. The most common ground for divorce involves a situation upon which there exists "irreconcilable differences" between the parties, and as a result the marriage is considered to be "irretrievably broken."

Divorce can be Uncontested, in which the parties agree on the distribution of assets, debts, child support, visitation and child custody. Divorce can also be Contested, in which the parties do not agree on the distribution of assets, debts, visitation, child support or child custody, and a Judge has to make an equitable distribution of assets and make a decision on child custody, visitation and support that is in the best interest of the child(ren).

The Clarke Law Office, LLC provides knowledgeable legal advice and offers effective help in these often distressing personal situations. Our firm strives to reach a just and fair agreement between our client and their spouse. If an acceptable agreement cannot be reached, we vigorously pursue and protect your rights in court.

In Divorce and Divorce-related cases, people are under a great deal of stress. One of the goals of the Attorney-Client relationship is for clients to be able to leave the problem, regardless of what it is, with the attorney, so that the client will be relieved of the stress created by the problem.

I represent the client's best interest by being a "problem solver." I take the burden away from the client and address the problem directly, while keeping the client informed. In addition, I am careful to review any other legal needs required by the client to provide "full service" for someone going through a divorce, including Wills, trusts, Powers of Attorneys, Medical Powers of Attorneys, and Living Wills.

What Is An Uncontested Divorce?

An uncontested divorce occurs when: (a) there are no disagreements between you and your spouse over any financial or divorce-related issues (i.e., child custody and support, division of marital property or spousal support); and (b) your spouse either agrees to the divorce, or fails to appear in the divorce action.
