Legal Question in Family Law in South Carolina

Re: leaving the country

It is not illegal to remove her from the country, provided no Orders have been issued in your case. However, if you go, your wife can attempt to obtain a custody order, at which point you could find yourself with a multitude of problems. It is much better to address these issues head on at the beginning instead of trying play catch up and solve problems after the fact.

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.
