Whether the state of Georgia has any jurisdiction over the person of your spouse is another question.

You can also have an uncontested divorce and the state of her residence as well as a contested case in the state of her residence. You may or may not be able to have a contested divorce in Georgia depending on whether there is jurisdiction over her person.

What am I entitled if I get a divorce?

Divorce lawyer at Horizons Law Group, LLC
The law presumes 50/50 in division of assets, and has to review support matters as well. But you have to assert/ask for those things. Do not sign an agreement that does not give you those rights. You should meet with an attorney to review your situation in terms of all the aspects of divorce, from assets/debts, to support, and placement/custody.
