Types of Child Custody in South Carolina
South Carolina recognizes two main types of custody:
Both physical and legal custody can be shared (joint custody) or awarded to one parent (sole custody), depending on the circumstances.
Factors Considered in Determining Custody
In South Carolina, the court evaluates several factors to determine what arrangement is in the best interest of the child, including:
Joint Custody vs. Sole Custody
South Carolina courts typically favor joint custody arrangements when both parents are able and willing to participate in raising the child. However, sole custody may be granted to one parent if it is determined to be in the child's best interest, especially in cases involving parental unfitness or unsafe living conditions.
