“Danny Naggiar represented me in my divorce and custody case. He was experienced, smart, and responsive to all my (many) questions. I was very impressed with his advocacy on my behalf and recommend him to anyone who needs his help. From the initial consultation to the finalization of my divorce he was there every step of the way. He’s the best. Thanks Danny!”

“A divorce can be ugly, real ugly. David Sarif is not only 2 steps ahead of opposing counsel, he quickly reads the legal and personal situations to move the process forward as easily as possible. He preserves your assets and your sanity. I’m glad David came so I highly recommended to me. My divorce may have done some real damage if he wasn’t in my corner.”

"Mr. Naggiar is an excellent attorney; sharp, smart, HIGHLY efficient…. And doesn’t cost an arm and a leg (unlike my ex-wife!). He delicately, sagaciously made my divorce as painless as possible and expedited the process per GA law and the judge. If, sadly, you have to go through this painful situation, I say call Danny. He will take your best interests to heart…and defend them."

Georgia recognizes both no-fault and fault-based grounds for divorce. The most common is no-fault, based on “irretrievably broken” marriage, meaning there’s no reasonable hope of reconciliation. Fault-based grounds include adultery, desertion, and cruel treatment. Regarding the timeline, Georgia has a 30-day waiting period after filing before a divorce can be finalized. However, the actual time it takes depends on the complexity of the case, whether the divorce is contested or uncontested, and the court’s schedule. Uncontested divorces can be resolved relatively quickly, while contested cases involving child custody, property division, or alimony may take several months or even a year or more.
In Georgia, child custody decisions are based on the “best interests of the child.” Courts consider various factors, including each parent’s ability to provide a stable and loving environment, the child’s wishes (if they are of sufficient age and maturity), the parents’ willingness to cooperate, and any history of domestic violence or substance abuse. The court may award sole custody to one parent or joint legal and/or physical custody to both parents. Legal custody refers to decision-making rights, while physical custody relates to where the child resides.
Georgia is an equitable distribution state, meaning marital property is divided fairly, though not necessarily equally. Marital property includes assets acquired during the marriage, regardless of whose name is on the title. Separate property, such as gifts or inheritances received by one spouse, generally remains separate. The court considers factors like the length of the marriage, each spouse’s contributions, and their economic circumstances when dividing marital assets. It is important to note that equitable does not always mean a 50/50 split.
Alimony, or spousal support, is financial assistance provided to one spouse by the other after a divorce. It’s not automatically awarded and depends on various factors. Courts consider the requesting spouse’s need, the other spouse’s ability to pay, the standard of living during the marriage, the length of the marriage, and each spouse’s contributions to the marriage. Alimony can be awarded for a specific period (rehabilitative alimony) or indefinitely (permanent alimony), though permanent alimony is less common.
