Re: Divorce parents
There is no specific age in SC at which a child can choose where to live. I have written two articles on this topic, which you can access at these links: http://tinyurl.com/6b49ke or http://tinyurl.com/6p7ksq
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.
If you need more information, you can visit my family law blog (www.SCFamilyLaw.com) or our website (www.StevensFirm.com). I wish you the best of luck.
