Divorce

2024-08-22 Author: Nika Vekua

Divorce in Georgia occurs through two methods: When both parties consent, termination of a registered marriage is possible by jointly applying to the Public Service Development Agency of the Ministry of Justice of Georgia (Justice House). If one spouse does not want a divorce, or if there are property or non-property disputes between the spouses, divorce is pursued through court application.

Our company offers legal services for both scenarios:

Divorce at the Justice House with mutual consent
If both parties agree to terminate the marriage through divorce, the spouses can apply to the Justice House, and the divorce will be registered within 5 working days.

Our company's lawyers are prepared to represent one or both parties at the Justice House through power of attorney and complete this often unpleasant process as comfortably as possible. Many clients utilize this service because parties frequently wish to avoid meeting due to strained relationships. Our company's lawyers will ensure the preparation of all necessary documents and handle the divorce registration.

This service is particularly advantageous when one or both spouses are abroad. In such cases, our company's lawyer can act as a representative for one or both parties, eliminating the need to return to Georgia for divorce registration.

Divorce through court proceedings
Often, one spouse may not desire a divorce, or the parties may disagree on property or non-property issues related to the divorce. In such cases, divorce is only possible through court proceedings. Our company's lawyers specializing in family disputes will protect your interests in court. Specifically, our attorneys prepare the lawsuit for court filing, attend court hearings, and safeguard your property and non-property rights. It's important to note that when a client is represented by a lawyer, they are not required to attend court proceedings themselves.
