Sumter Alimony Lawyers

Alimony & Divorce Attorneys

Alimony, or spousal maintenance, is the money paid by one spouse to another after the divorce. McDougall Self Currence McLeod relies on several years of experience in family law to argue for fair alimony amounts. The firm knows how to show the court what a spouse deserves based on factors determined by South Carolina law. If we can convince your spouse of your position in mediation, we'll do that first. The amount of alimony laid out in a divorce settlement can affect our clients' lives for years to come, so it is important we get it right the first time.

    "They will fight not just hard, but smart for you."

    Spoke with the legal team at McDougall Self Currence McLeod regarding a car accident. After speaking with one of their injury attorneys I came away with the impression that McDougall Law was strategic in building a very aggressive strategy in which to get the best outcome. Recommended if you're looking for a team of attorneys who will fight not just hard, but smart for you.

    "By far and away the most professional attorney I have ever worked with."

    By far and away the most professional attorney I have ever worked with. John McDougall was fabulous at helping me through the most challenging time of my life. He helped protect me, my boys and everyone involved. I have continued to use him for the past 12 years. I would highly recommend.

    They make you feel like family and that you are being heard. Ryan has helped me with my divorce and most recent custody battle. He made sure I got what was deserved and made sure I never walked away with regret.
