Legal Question in Family Law in South Carolina

No, you should not walk away with nothing, assuming that there are "things" to be divided up. The Court will not care whose name the house is in, so long as it's in your name, his name, or both names. You should be entitled to roughly half of the marital estate, but without knowing more information, it's not possible to give you a guess as to what that will include.

These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case.
