Frequently Asked Questions
When should I contact an Attorney about my Divorce?
We suggest that you contact an Attorney the moment you think about divorce, your Spouse is alluding toward divorce, or you’ve been served with a divorce complaint. Since Divorce can be complicated and can have an impact on finances, property, children, among other things, it is best to be proactive and discuss your rights and where you stand with an Attorney.
The most common ground for a Divorce in South Carolina and North Carolina is physical separation from your spouse for at least 1 year. Physical Separation means living in separate residences. Additional grounds for Divorce in South Carolina, also known as fault grounds, are as follows:
- Adultery
- Desertion for more than 1 year
- Habitual Drunkenness
- Physical Cruelty
North Carolina has one additional ground for divorce, Incurable Insanity.
How long will the Divorce process take?
It depends. The Divorce process can take several months or over a year depending upon the circumstances. Uncontested cases, meaning that all issues are resolve will not take as long as Contested cases, where there are issues.
Who gets the House?
A big issue in a lot of Divorce cases is determining either who gets to remain in the home, or will the house be sold and what happens to the proceeds. The answers depend on several factors such as financial means, children’s need, marital fault, and etc.
How are the assets divided?
South Carolina is an equitable distribution state, which means that all property acquired during the marriage including but not limited tobank accounts, real estate, vehicles, jewelry, retirement funds, and other property and even debts are considered marital property. Unless the parties amicably agree to a distribution of the marital property, the Court will take inventory of the marital estate and divide all property fairly and equitably.
An uncontested divorce is a divorce where all issues impacting the marriage (property, child custody and support, etc.) are resolved.
What other issues may be involved with divorce?
Divorce issues are not limited to property issues it can also involve child custody and support issues.
Can I get Alimony?

What if my spouse cheats on me or I suspect cheating?
Cheating also formerly referred to as Adultery may have an impact on alimony and in North Carolina, third-parties involved in cheating may be subject to civil liability for alienation of affection or criminal conversation.
What if both spouses are unwilling to leave the house?
