How We Help Summerville Clients

Life and business often overlap. A divorce can involve a family business. An estate can include a company that needs a plan. Our family, estate and business attorneys work as one team, so you don’t have to explain your story twice.

Summerville Divorce and Family Law

Divorce and custody cases are personal, and the details of your case matter. Our Summerville divorce lawyers help families work through separation and divorce with clear advice and steady support, whether your case settles in mediation or goes to trial.

Most family law cases for Summerville residents are heard in Dorchester County Family Court. Summerville also stretches into Berkeley and Charleston counties, so the right court depends on where you live. We’ll confirm that with you on the first call.

We also work with military families from Joint Base Charleston, where military benefits and retirement pay add their own rules to a divorce.

Summerville Estate Planning and Probate

Summerville has grown quickly, and many families who moved here still have wills written under another state’s laws, or no plan at all. Our estate planning attorneys help you put a clear South Carolina plan in place so your wishes are followed and your family isn’t left guessing.

When a loved one passes away, our Summerville probate lawyers guide families through probate from start to finish. Estates of Summerville residents are typically handled through the Dorchester County Probate Court, or Berkeley or Charleston County if that’s where your loved one lived.
