Floyd Law Firm PC

Divorce
One lawyer cannot represent both spouses. While many lawyers have a specific fee for a simple, uncontested divorce, the fee for most divorces depends on the amount of time a lawyer and staff must spend working on the case. This will depend on whether the case is contested and whether there are issues of custody, support, and property division. The lawyer should discuss the charges involved in a case and any payment options, and in certain cases, the court can order one spouse to pay all or part of the other spouses’ legal fees and related expenses.

Divorce
One lawyer cannot represent both spouses. While many lawyers have a specific fee for a simple, uncontested divorce, the fee for most divorces depends on the amount of time a lawyer and staff must spend working on the case. This will depend on whether the case is contested and whether there are issues of custody, support, and property division. The lawyer should discuss the charges involved in a case and any payment options, and in certain cases, the court can order one spouse to pay all or part of the other spouses’ legal fees and related expenses.
Child Support
Filing Chapter 13 can mean that specific kinds of secured debt, such as a vehicle loan, may be restructured by reducing principal to the market value of the assets, and lowering payments by extending the repayment period to sixty months. Obligations such as mortgages and taxes owed may be modified as well. Some debts cannot be discharged such as priority debts that include child support, spousal support, and some taxes.
Child Custody and Visitation
When parents cannot agree on who should have custody of their minor children, then the court must decide. Custody litigation is an expensive procedure and often very emotional. Both parents should look honestly at their new living conditions, available time, and other resources to fully consider which parent can provide a better home life for their children. Because neither parent automatically has a legal right to custody, the court will consider the best interests of the children.
Adoption
Paternity
Premarital Agreement
Guardianship
Revocable Trusts avoid many guardianship issues because if a Settlor becomes incapacitated, the successor Trustee can take over management of the assets without court involvement. If the trust is used in conjunction with a Power of Attorney, the Trustee and attorney-in-fact are not required to account to the court yearly as is necessary in a typical guardianship proceeding.
Spousal Support
From property division, alimony, child support, and all other areas of South Carolina family law, we seek creative solutions in order to help our clients avoid costly and protracted conflicts whenever possible.
Legal Separation
The uniform statewide Family Court system of South Carolina was established by statute in 1976. This court system has exclusive jurisdiction over all matters involving domestic or family relationships and is the sole forum for the hearing of all cases concerning marriage, legal separation, divorce, child custody, visitation rights, termination of parental rights, child support, alimony, adoption, division of marital property, and name changes. The family court also generally has exclusive jurisdiction over minors under the age of seventeen alleged to have violated any municipal ordinance or state law.

Today, Jarrett focuses his practice in the areas of Criminal Defense, Civil Litigation, and Probate Litigation. He also assists professionals such as nurses, contractors, real estate brokers and others licensed through the South Carolina Department of Labor, Licensing, and Regulation (LLR) in disciplinary proceedings before various licensing boards. In addition to representing clients in the beginning of a case, and at the trial stage, Jarrett has accepted representation of clients to handle appeals following the conclusion of their trial.
DUI/DWI

Wrongful Death

Traffic Violations
The GHSA report highlights several factors contributing to the increase in pedestrian deaths, with the rising popularity of trucks and SUVs playing a significant role. These larger and heavier vehicles are responsible for a growing share of traffic fatalities. Additionally, the absence of sidewalks and unsafe road conditions exacerbate the risks pedestrians face. Most pedestrian deaths occur on roads without sidewalks or at non-intersection locations, and speeding, especially on smaller roads, remains a major contributing factor. Furthermore, the report notes a significant reduction in traffic enforcement efforts by local governments in recent years, further compounding the safety concerns.

Shoplifting
Forgery
Kidnapping
The first step in planning a vacation with your child during a divorce is to review the parenting plan that was likely established at the time of your separation. This plan typically addresses issues related to traveling with your child. Many parenting agreements require the parent seeking to travel with the child to obtain written consent from the other parent. It is essential to comply with these requirements to avoid any accusations of parental kidnapping or violating the parenting plan.

Trade Secrets
Intellectual Property
Antitrust

Workers Compensation
Wrongful Termination
Employer and employee relationships can become strained if any legal disputes arise that may involve suspected discrimination or wrongful termination. Legal concerns involving the payment of wages, safety in the workplace, harassment, or injury often require the help of an employment attorney who can communicate and explain the legal implications to each party involved. Obvious violations of any state or federal anti-discrimination laws or employment agreements and contracts may require direct litigation.
Employment Contract
Nothing can disrupt a business quicker than poor employer-employee relations. Our firm advises employers on the most effective method of structuring employment contracts to protect the employer and establish the framework for a proper employer-employee relationship.
Employment Litigation
The employment law attorneys at The Floyd Law Firm offer legal representation in employment disputes as well as counseling, mediation, and document preparation when needed.

Sexual Harassment

Real Estate Litigation
The Supreme Court of South Carolina requires that certain real estate matters are to be conducted by attorneys licensed to practice law in South Carolina. These matters include the reporting, opinions and certifications related to status of titles to real estate; preparing necessary documents affecting a title to real estate; handling real estate and mortgage loan closings; recording of documents and disbursement of proceeds. Therefore, if you are purchasing or refinancing any property in South Carolina, our laws require you do so under the supervision of an attorney.
Premises Liability
The experienced attorneys at The Floyd Law Firm are here to help you get answers. We make ourselves available to assist those who have been hurt because of dangerous public or privately-owned settings. Premises liability situations may include falls on surfaces, objects or debris, broken stairs, slippery floors, sharp objects on a property, and other issues of poor maintenance. Inadequate lighting, a lack of upkeep, and negligent security can lead to harmful dangers on one’s property.
Construction Litigation
At The Floyd Law Firm PC, we represent property owners, design engineers, builders, architects, contractors, subcontractors, insurance companies, materials suppliers, laborers, and other parties that may find themselves involved in a legal dispute related to the construction industry. Our legal services include a multitude of aspects concerning construction law and litigation, and our attorneys have experience representing clients in complex real estate markets.
Real Estate Transactions
We stay informed and current with every update of the laws surrounding real estate transactions. Changes to laws and federal mortgage forms required under the Truth-in-Lending Act (TILA) and Real Estate Settlement and Procedures Act (RESPA) as TILA-RESPA Integrated Disclosure (TRID) rules can make the entire process of securing a mortgage and purchasing property complicated. We’ll go over the guidelines and standards for agent behavior related to disclosures, the types of facts that are required, and facts to be disclosed. The possible need of Flood Insurance is also important. You need to know when it is required, how the rates are determined, and how the National Flood Insurance Program works. It is our top priority to ensure that our clients’ real estate dollars are properly protected.
Land Use and Zoning
Property Damage
Plaintiffs in wrongful death claims may secure economic damages such as medical bills, lost wages, household services, property damage, funeral costs, and burial expenses. In the event that the court awards damages to the surviving family members, the family must either agree on how to split the award amicably, or agree to follow a court-ordered disbursement plan.

Immigration Law

Student Visas
Foreign students who will be living in the United States to study full-time at an academic program or institution require an F-1 student visa. It is possible to change schools while studying on an F-1 visa without leaving the country, and the student may stay in the United States for as long as he or she is enrolled in school.
Work Visas
An L-1 Intra-company Transfer Work Visa may be issued to a person employed outside the United States who is being transferred to a United States branch or affiliate. In most cases, people issued this visa possess specialized knowledge or are executives or managers.

Medicaid Planning
Whether you have children or not, having a plan in place for your care as you age removes any uncertainty and worry over your future well-being. An effective estate plan can include a Will, trusts, powers of attorney for healthcare and property decisions, and advance health directives such as living Wills and healthcare proxy. Many clients can also request Medicaid Planning advice to help in lessening the economic impact of long-term care. The cost of elder care over many years can often be catastrophic for elderly, middle-class individuals and couples. Our attorneys are sensitive to your needs for proper planning.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
The Floyd Law Firm, PC founder â€“ Attorney Dalton B. Floyd, Jr. â€“ was chosen for the 2022 Lifetime Achievement in Estate Planning list in the 2022 Q4 issue of TOP 100 LAWYERS.
Wills
An effective estate plan can include a Will, trusts, powers of attorney for healthcare and property decisions, and advance health directives such as living wills and healthcare proxy.
Trusts
Every Revocable Trust becomes Irrevocable upon the death of the Settlor. An Irrevocable Trust cannot be changed after it is created, and for this reason, it is critical that the language of the trust does exactly what you want it to do before it is signed and funded. Irrevocable Trusts are used to remove assets from a Settlor’s estate through transfers of insurance or other property for the ultimate beneficiaries – who are usually younger generation family members. In some circumstances, the Irrevocable Trust may also be used to insulate assets from creditor liability.
Power of Attorney
Effective estate plans can include a Will, living will, trusts, powers of attorney, healthcare proxy, and advance health directives.
Probate

Bankruptcy
Entrepreneurs and small business owners that earn too much to file a Chapter 7 bankruptcy may file Chapter 13, which is ideal for those with enough capital or disposable income to pay off some of the debts or if a company reorganization is necessary to ensure survival. Similar to a Chapter 11 for businesses, Chapter 13 reorganizes the debts in order for the business owner to repay its lenders via a more manageable payment plan covering three to five years.
Foreclosure
The lender – any person or financial institution that lends money on real estate – also wants their investment protected. Title Insurance companies provide mortgage title insurance policies to assure the lender that the mortgage is a valid first lien protected against hidden as well as known defects in the title as insured. Such a policy affords that the lender can be certain about the title – which may be acquired in the event of a foreclosure.
Tax Law
We can often complete an initial planning consultation in about an hour. Our focus will center upon gathering the essential information that we need in order to get started. We want to understand what your goals and needs are, and we can begin outlining what planning tools may be best suited to your individual situation. Our extensive experience allows us to create effective plans that can include estate and trust planning, tax planning, and other more complicated details. We work with tax experts and other professionals as needed to ensure that we are able to best serve your specific needs.
