Fill Out your Forms

To begin a divorce in South Carolina, one spouse must file a Complaint for Divorce. Where the complaint is filed depends upon the location of both spouses. If the receiving spouse (the defendant) does not live in South Carolina, then the complaining spouse (the plaintiff) can file in their own county. If the defendant lives in South Carolina the plaintiff must file for divorce in the county in which the spouses last lived together.
