Legal Question in Family Law in South Carolina

Re: legal separtion

The State in which you were married does not have anything to do with the State in which you can get divorced or separated. If both you and your spouse have lived in SC for more than three months (or either one of you for over a year), then SC will have jurisdiction to address the separation/divorce.

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.
