Family Law

Divorce
Child Support
Our firm works closely with you to make sure that we address child support matters during your divorce. If your ex-spouse fails to comply with the divorce decree, the firm helps you seek enforcement from the court.
Child Custody and Visitation
McDougall Self Currence McLeod offers these answers to frequently asked questions about family law in order to prepare clients for consultations or strategic discussions. The firm hopes prospective clients use this cursory information to orient themselves within the legal landscape of divorce, child custody and support, and other family law matters. Use this page to get a general understanding of South Carolina family law, but keep in mind that nothing replaces speaking to one of the firm's attorneys about your unique situation.
Spousal Support
Alimony, or spousal maintenance, is the money paid by one spouse to another after the divorce. McDougall Self Currence McLeod relies on several years of experience in family law to argue for fair alimony amounts. The firm knows how to show the court what a spouse deserves based on factors determined by South Carolina law. If we can convince your spouse of your position in mediation, we'll do that first. The amount of alimony laid out in a divorce settlement can affect our clients' lives for years to come, so it is important we get it right the first time.

Jason is also a member of the Florida Bar.
DUI/DWI
Operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of impairing substances, such as alcohol, is a criminal offense in South Carolina. Being stopped by a law enforcement official and subjected to a DUI investigation, including but not limited to a field sobriety test and submitting a breath sample for testing, can be traumatic for a driver in the State of South Carolina. If you are arrested and charged with this offense, then you could face fines, jail time, probation, license suspension, and a criminal record for conviction. Our firm can provide you with professional representation through every phase of the litigation of your charge of DUI, from your arrest to a trial. We will protect your rights, investigate whether the arresting officer conducted a legal traffic stop, and proper DUI investigation. It is vitally important that you have skillful representation on your side.
Sex Crimes
Misdemeanors
If you have been charged with a criminal offense, then you could face serious penalties for conviction of this charge. Depending on the crime for which you are charged, you could face felony or misdemeanor penalties. The penalties for various criminal convictions in this state are as follows...
Drug Crimes
Drug crimes such as possession, cultivation, or distribution can result in hefty fines, jail time, and other penalties upon conviction. Depending on the class of drug in question, and the amount that was found at the time of your arrest, you will face more or less serious penalties upon conviction. Many indictments for serious drug offenses result from months of investigation by local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies. This volume of evidence should be reviewed by our experienced attorney, who understands how to interpret the information and analyze your case. Our firm has experience in handling these various criminal charges, and we can put our considerable knowledge to work for you in your case.

Property Law

Premises Liability
A slip and fall accident can result from a negligent coworker not cleaning fluid up from the ground, thereby causing you to slip accidentally. You may have the option to file a workers’ compensation claim for damages or file a lawsuit against the negligent individual. It is important to note that you may be approached by an insurance company offering a settlement for your injuries; it is highly advisable that you do not accept this initial settlement but rather speak with a representative before accepting or declining an offer.

Health Law

Personal Injury
If you have been injured in an accident due to the negligent acts of another, then it is important to know that you may be able to obtain money damages for the injuries you have suffered. There are laws regarding employee safety and the safe work environment that employers are responsible for providing to their employees. If you have been injured in an accident at work due to the negligence of a coworker or your employer, then you may be able to collect damages through a workers’ compensation claim.
Dog Bites
Property owners have the responsibility to provide a safe environment for invitees, guests, and other authorized individuals who come onto their property. When an individual is injured on a property due to the negligence of the property owner, then the owner may be held liable for the individual’s injuries. These circumstances can include slip and fall accidents as well as dog attacks. Many people keep domestic dogs and other animals as pets, and many believe their dogs to be docile and friendly. There are many cases, however, when a dog misinterprets the intentions of an invitee and attacks them. Without proper warning or adequate restraint for the dog, the property owner may be held liable for the injuries sustained by a guest due to negligence.
