In the state of South Carolina, child support is controlled by The South Carolina Child Support Guidelines, but the help of an experienced attorney can get the best result possible for your desired outcome.

The amount of child support is calculated on the gross income of both parents, the number of children that require support, and the needs of the child.

Generally, the needs of a child includes food expenses, shelter, clothing, utilities, household belongings, transportation, standard healthcare and recreation. Some healthcare considerations may be made for child expenses such as braces, medications, therapies, or other expenses.

The Court will make a decision based on these components. For this reason, it is essential to have knowledgeable and experienced attorney in your corner that will help you gather and present all the documents and evidence necessary.
