Megan Hunt Dell

I'm a South Carolina family lawyer and the owner of Dell Family Law, P.C. in West Ashley. My practice covers divorce, custody, alimony, child support, third-party custody cases such as grandparent custody, and appeals from Family Court orders.

A lot of people come in asking for a "bulldog." What most of them actually need is a lawyer who uses only as much pressure as the case calls for, because a bigger fight costs more and does more damage to the family. I start every case by asking clients to rank their goals in order of importance, and then we go after those goals. I prepare every case as if it's going to trial. That preparation is usually what gets a good settlement, and when a case does need to be tried, it's ready.

I'm originally from Moncks Corner. After I was sworn into the South Carolina Bar, I practiced in Horry County until I came back to Charleston in 2013. Today, I appear in Family Court in Charleston, Berkeley, Dorchester, Horry, Georgetown, and Beaufort counties.

When I'm not practicing law, I try new recipes, try to become a runner, sing loudly and off-key, and read. My husband and I live in Ravenel with our children and a cat who has enough personality for two humans.
