On our South Carolina Custody page, we created the new subsection Steps to file for custody in English and Spanish, which reorganized the steps into six separate questions, making it easier for users to find the information they need:
- Considerations before filing
- Step 1: Prepare for the case
- Step 2: File and serve the custody petition
- Step 3: Preliminary court dates
- Step 4: Reach an agreement or go to trial
- Step 5: Options if you disagree with the order
These questions explain the usual stages in a custody case and cross-link to other relevant information on our website. We also reorganized the page to make it easier for users to find the information they need by moving the existing questions into new subsections: Basic information and definitions, Who can get custody or visitation, and The custody process. Changes made in English and Spanish!
