Re: uncontested divorce

SC will have jurisdiction to grant you a divorce if you have lived here together for 90 days or if you have lived here yourself for one year. It does not sound like you meet either criteria.

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.
