Today we pause to honor and remember the heroes who gave their lives in service to our country. 🎖️

Memorial Day is more than a long weekend, it’s a time for reflection, gratitude, and respect for the sacrifice that makes our freedoms possible.

As communities gather across the country, we remember those who are no longer with us and recognize the courage they showed in defending our nation. Take a moment today to reflect, honor, and remember. 🇺🇸

Memorial Day weekend is all about honoring, relaxing, and spending time with friends and family, but it’s also one of the highest-risk weekends for impaired driving. 🚨

With more travel, gatherings, and late-night celebrations, DUI stops tend to increase across the Upstate and beyond. A single decision to drive after drinking can lead to serious consequences, affecting your license, job, finances, and overall future. If you're pulled over, remember: DUI cases follow strict legal procedures, and law enforcement must meet specific standards for a charge to hold up in court. Small errors in that process can sometimes make a major difference in your case.

As you head into the weekend, keep safety front of mind:
Celebrate responsibly,
Plan ahead and use a rideshare or designated driver,
and stay alert for increased traffic, pedestrians, and other drivers.

If you're facing a DUI charge near Greenville or Spartanburg, understanding your rights and options is critical. Learn more about challenging a DUI charge: https://ellislawupstate.com/blog/challenging-dui/

Do you know how much it actually costs to get divorced in South Carolina? In most cases, the court filing fee for a divorce is $150.00.

However, that’s just the starting point. Depending on your situation, there may also be additional expenses such as:
📑 Filing motions or requesting court hearings
📬 Serving legal paperwork to the other party
⚖️ Court-related costs that can arise during the process

The total cost of a divorce can vary significantly based on complexity, especially when issues like child custody, support, or division of marital assets are involved. That’s why having guidance early on matters. Speaking with an experienced family law attorney in the Greenville/Spartanburg area can help you understand what to expect based on your specific circumstances and avoid surprises down the road.

Even after a DUI-related suspension in South Carolina, there may still be pathways that allow you to legally drive under certain conditions. If your license is suspended, you could potentially qualify for alternative or restricted driving options, such as:

🚗 Temporary Alcohol License (TAL)
🛣️ Route Restricted License
🔐 Ignition Interlock Device (IID) License
📄 Provisional License

Each option comes with its own requirements, restrictions, and eligibility rules depending on your case and driving history. If you're dealing with a suspension, it’s important to understand what you may qualify for and how to move forward legally and safely.

Can a child decide which parent they live with?

When families are going through custody decisions, this is one of the most common questions we hear, especially during seasons of change like spring, when routines shift and new beginnings are on the horizon.
Question: Can my child choose which parent to live with in South Carolina?
Answer: A child’s preference may be considered by the court, but there is no set age where this becomes the deciding factor.

Instead, the court looks at the child’s age, maturity level, and reasoning behind their preference. However, this is only one piece of a much larger picture.

In every custody case, the court evaluates multiple factors to determine what is in the child’s best interests, including:
⚖️ Stability of each home environment
🏫 Educational and daily routines
💛 Emotional and physical well-being
🤝 Each parent’s involvement and ability to care for the child

Ultimately, the guiding standard is always the same: what outcome best supports the child’s health, safety, and overall development.
