Division of marital property and debts.
South Carolina is an "equitable distribution" state, meaning that if the court gets involved in the division of marital property, it will divide the property on what it deems as most fair. This doesn't mean equal distribution, but rather on what it feels is the most fair to both parties.
Many customers have been separated and have already split their property, and made decisions on how the debts of the marriage will be paid.
Although most customer have already divided property, and don't require the divorce forms to include any division of property or debts, we can get as detailed as necessary. We handle the division of multiple homes and/or investment properties if needed.
