Question

Our marriage licence is from Georgia. Now we live in South Carolina. Does it matter which state we file for divorce?

Answer

Typically, divorces must be filed in the state where you love, not where you got married. 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.SpartanburgLawyers.com). I wish you the best of luck.
