These actions are major life decisions that affect not only your life but the lives of those you love the most.

At Murray Law Group, LLC, our legal services attorneys are skilled and have been helping people navigate the Family Courts across Horry and Georgetown Counties since 2002. Before you make a major life changing decision, call Murray Law Group, LLC and schedule an appointment to meet with our team to thoroughly evaluate your case before you get started.
Child Support
In the South Carolina a parent or legal custodian can petition the court for a court order requiring the payment of child support. There are numerous factors that are considered when determining who should pay support and how much support should be ordered. Whether you are seeking an award of support or whether an action has been filed against you for support, Murray Law Group, LLC will take the time necessary and work with you to make certain that all the allowable factors that affect child support awards are carefully considered. Generally the non-custodial parent, or parent who spends less than 50% of the time with the children, is the party required to pay support. The custodial parent is also required to support their child/children but the law makes the assumption that the parent receiving support is also spending the required amount on the children directly.
Child Custody and Visitation
At Murray Law Group, LLC, P.A. we recognize how important the future of your children is to you and your family and we can help. Whether you are going through a divorce or are having problems with custody and visitation related to a relationship where the parties never married, our legal services attorneys at Murray Law Group, LLC is here to protect your rights.
Adoption
Premarital Agreement
On the other hand, if the couple breaks up after they are married it may be a different matter as the condition for the gift was fulfilled when the marriage took place. The South Carolina Court of Appeals held that “[a]n antenuptial gift of an engagement ring is the recipient’s separate property.” Frank v. Frank, 429 S.E.2d 823, 311 S.C. 454 (S.C. App., 1993) In other words, the court determined that the ring was not marital property and therefore not subject to equitable division by the Family Court. This may cause some people to think twice before giving the family heirloom engagement ring away. Although it may be possible to protect an heirloom ring with a prenuptial agreement.
Guardianship
Spousal Support
Separate Support and Maintenance allows couples to seek most of the same type of relief that they would request in a divorce when they may not have sufficient grounds or desire to seek a divorce.Â By filing a Complaint for Separate Support and Maintenance a Family Court can, as in a divorce, deal with issues of custody of minor children, visitation, child support, alimony, restraining orders, equitable division of marital assets and debts, pretrial discovery, attorney’s fees and more.Â If you have more questions about Separate Support and Maintenance, call Murray Law Group, LLC and schedule a consultation today.
Legal Separation
Unlike many states, South Carolina does not recognize legal separation.Â The law in South Carolina does permit individuals who are married to seek a form of relief that is similar by petitioning the court for "Separate Support and Maintenance".
Child Abuse
Child custody and visitation are always modifiable by the Family Court. However, the party seeking the change in custody or visitation must show that there has been a substantial change in circumstances affecting the welfare of the child and a change in custody and/or visitation is in the overall best interests of the child. Some of these situations may involve: relocation; child abuse; substance abuse; poor performance and/or attendance in school; health concerns surrounding parent and/or child; and many other situations that may warrant a change in custody or visitation. At Murray Law Group, LLC, we will evaluate your case and help determine if there has been a change in circumstances, and if there has been a change, we will help you fight for your childrenâ€™s best interest.

Criminal Defense
Murray Law Group, LLC will provide you with advice and representation in all areas of criminal law including...
DUI/DWI
A: This is the most common question asked of DUI attorneys but the answer is not so black and white. First off, no one should ever be behind the wheel when they are impaired. However, sometimes these things just happen. So what should you do if this happens to you? This will depend on the person and their specific situation.
Wrongful Death
Wrongful death statutes are designed to compensate the patient's family for their future monetary loss. The calculation is more thorough than a simple projection of future salary -- it also considers factors like the patient's spending, saving, and working habits. Compensation for the family's loss of companionship or emotional harm is typically not allowed under the wrongful death statues, although recently some states have allowed that kind of recovery. Depending on the state, not

Business and Corporate Law

Corporate Law
Business Formation
Have you found the perfect residence and are ready to purchase? Are you looking at signing a contract? For your real estate closings, wills and business formation needs, ask for a managing attorney.
Business Disputes
Our society depends on contracts to enable corporations and individuals to transact business and pursue their goals. Working with an experienced lawyer to protect your interest as you develop and enter important contracts is very important. The resolution of any disagreements can be a high-stakes matter for all involved. When a contract dispute arises, the quality of your legal counsel and representation can quickly become absolutely crucial. Murray Law Group, LLC has successfully represented business of all sizes in countless contract disputes.
Business Transactions
We also handle commercial real estate transactions, in which you should always be prepared to expect the unexpected. Commercial transactions can be very complex and may deal with many issues that most residential closings do not include. Commercial closings are sometimes subject to UCC searches, surveys, water department certifications, governmental notices, appraisals, property inspection reports, environmental site assessments, estoppel certificates, rent rolls and certificates of authority. We have the skills and experience, however, to see these through to yield our standard result: a smooth, stress-free as possible, closed transaction.

Employment Contract
Non-compete Agreement
Severance Agreement
The South Carolina Family Courts use South Carolina Child Support Guidelines as the legal basis for support orders made by the South Carolina Family Courts. When factoring child support the courts in South Carolina first look to the parties gross income, this being all of your before tax income including but not limited to employment income, bonuses, commissions, severance pay, rental income, investment income, pensions, trust income, and even alimony. In other words, all sources of income. In addition to income the courts also consider health insurance costs for the minor child, work or school related daycare, uncovered medical expenses for your children, prior child support orders, and other children in the home among other factors. A useful tool to give you an idea of what child support might be set at can be found by using the South Carolina Child Support Calculator.
