SOUTH CAROLINA Part 72

Can Your Divorce Judge Award Any Other Type of Alimony?

Yes. The South Carolina alimony law gives family law judges a lot of flexibility in deciding what to do. Under the sixth type of alimony, your divorce judge could decide that your situation does not fit neatly into one of five types of alimony, which are described above. Instead of one type of alimony, your judge may combine periodic, rehabilitative, reimbursement, and/or lump sum alimony in a packaged deal.
