Johnston.

We focus on the financial aspects of divorce.

• Alimony Because there are no guidelines for alimony (spousal maintenance) in South Carolina, it is critical to have an attorney who can develop alimony plans to protect your financial interests.

• Marital settlement agreements The equitable division of property can be complex and requires identifying all property, classifying it as marital or non-marital, and valuing the property. It is critical to have an attorney skilled at developing financial arguments that preserve your property rights.

All aspects of divorce, including disputes, are resolved in family court. South Carolina family courts regularly order mediation in most contested cases before a trial can be ordered. We are able to advise clients about the mediation process, based on our extensive experience in mediation.

We receive many referrals from former clients, attorneys, and other professionals due to our extensive experience. If you need a lawyer, contact our divorce law firm in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, at (843) 881-6866.
