Financial Affidavit

In order to file for divorce in South Carolina it is not necessary to hire an attorney.  However, if you have any assets or children it may be a mistake to go forward without seeking legal advice.  South Carolina as with many states requires each party to provide a complete financial affidavit that is sworn to by the party. 

Documents that you should go ahead and put together prior to meetin with a South Carolina Divorce Attorney:
  • income tax returns
  • pay stubs
  • monthly bills, including credit cards
  • checking account statements
  • any investment information with balances
  • insurance policies
  • IRA or retirement account information
  • deeds to any property
  • any written agreements between parties or notes
