Legal Question in Family Law in South Carolina
My husband and I both receive social security. I stayed at home for 17 years to care for my husband, children and home. Am I entitled to any of his social security

This is a complicated question, but the simple answer is that the Court can't "divide" his SS benefits, but it could award you alimony and consider his SS benefits as income for him when analyzing his ability to pay alimony to you.
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.
