Can You Get a Lump Sum Payment of Alimony?
Yes. South Carolina divorce law permits your family
court judge to order a fourth type of alimony, which is lump sum alimony. Your
judge may order lump sum alimony if the parties agree to it or if special
circumstances exist. For example, if the paying spouse has already left South
Carolina, the divorce judge may order a lump sum payment of a definite, fixed
amount of alimony. Armed with a judgment for the lump sum alimony, the
supported spouse can then collect his or her alimony by selling the real estate
or other property of the absent spouse.
