Many people in South Carolina struggling to pay off debts truly desire to pay their bills and avoid bankruptcy. They might consider accepting a debt settlement deal with a credit card company or other creditor as an alternative to bankruptcy. Although settling a debt for a partial amount might present a reasonable solution in some cases, debtors should approach this route with caution.

Contesting a will involves identifying all interested parties
The creation of a last will and testament does not always prevent disputes from arising after someone passes away in South Carolina. A variety of reasons, such as a concern that someone took advantage of an elderly person, could prompt a person to contest a will. Probate courts oversee the validation and execution of wills, and a will contest petition requires the identification and notification of all interested parties.
