If you are a parent and you are currently going through a divorce, you may be facing serious questions regarding the future, security, and stability of your children. These may be among the most important decisions you and your spouse make in the marriage dissolution process, and it is important to have strong legal counsel so that you are able to make fully informed choices that safeguard your rights and advance the best interests of your loved ones. We can help you understand South Carolina custody law and what your rights are as a biological parent or grandparent. Call us to learn more about our parental rights and grandparents’ rights practice in Lexington County.
How is Child Support Determined in South Carolina?
In the state of South Carolina, children are entitled to receive financial support from both parents, whether the parents are legally married or not. The amount of these payments is determined by a number of factors, including the income of both parents, the cost of raising the child, and which parent is responsible for the child’s daily care.
We can help you protect the future of your child in court if your child’s parent is refusing to pay child support. On the other hand, if you are being asked to pay more than your legal obligation or ability, we understand how to defend your rights. Call a Lexington County divorce attorney from our firm today.
