Our Law Firm in Rock Hill, SC

When your family or your finances are on the line, you should not have to explain your whole life to a stranger in a call center two counties away. You should be able to sit across the table from the person who is actually handling your case. That is how I have run The Howze Law Firm since I opened our doors here in 2018.

I am Tracy Bomar-Howze, and our office is right here in Rock Hill. This is where I meet clients, prepare cases, and walk people through divorce, custody, alimony, and bankruptcy with straight answers and a plan they can follow. I am licensed in South Carolina and Michigan and admitted in the United States District Court and the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of South Carolina, and I have spent my career representing families and individuals across York County and the surrounding area.

Call us today: (803) 324-9009 

Come See Us in Rock Hill

Our office is set up so you feel comfortable from the moment you walk in. It is a private, professional space built for honest conversations, document reviews, and planning your next step together. You will not be passed around. When you come in, you meet with the people working on your matter.

Parking and Getting Inside

We know that getting around is not always easy when you are dealing with a stressful case, so we have tried to make the visit simple. There is convenient parking near our East Main Street building, and we are glad to help you find the entrance if you call ahead. If you have a mobility need or a scheduling constraint, tell us when you book and we will make it work.

How to Find Us

We are in downtown Rock Hill on East Main Street, near the Winthrop University area and just off the main routes through the city.

  • Coming from the north (Charlotte / I-77 South): Take I-77 South into Rock Hill and exit toward Dave Lyle Boulevard. Follow Dave Lyle Boulevard west toward downtown, then continue to East Main Street and look for our building near Suite 115.
  • Coming from the south (Columbia / I-77 North): Take I-77 North to the Dave Lyle Boulevard exit, head west toward downtown Rock Hill, and continue to East Main Street.
  • Coming from York or Clover (SC-161 / Celanese Road): Follow SC-161 / Celanese Road into Rock Hill toward the downtown area and continue to East Main Street.

Making Sense of the Local Court System

One of the confusing parts of any case here is that Rock Hill sits inside a larger county and a larger judicial circuit, and where your matter is handled depends on what kind of case it is. If you have never dealt with it before, that is completely normal. Sorting it out is my job, not yours.

  • Family Court (divorce, custody, support, adoption, protection orders): Family matters for our area are heard in the York County Family Court, located right here in Rock Hill at 1555 West Main Street. This is where divorce, child custody and support, separate maintenance, adoption, and orders of protection are filed and heard for the 16th Judicial Circuit.
  • Civil Court (Court of Common Pleas): Civil lawsuits for York County are heard at the Joseph R. Moss Justice Center at 1675 York Highway in York, the county seat, a short drive west of Rock Hill.
  • Bankruptcy: Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 cases for our area are filed with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of South Carolina, which serves York County. I am admitted to that court and handle the filing, the hearings, and the trustee communication for you.

Whichever court your case belongs in, I know the deadlines, the local filing practices, and the people in those buildings, and I handle all of it so nothing slips through the cracks.

Why Choose Us

I know these courtrooms. I am in the York County Family Court and the 16th Judicial Circuit regularly, and I know the procedures and the local habits that make a real difference in how a case moves.

This community is home. I serve on the board of Safe Passage, the local organization that supports survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, and I have taught legal courses at colleges and universities in the Charlotte region. When you work with this firm, you are working with someone who is invested in Rock Hill and York County, not a name on a billboard.

You are always welcome to come in, talk through your situation privately, and get the reassurance of working with an attorney you have actually met.

We serve Rock Hill, York, Clover, Fort Mill, Lake Wylie, Lancaster, Chester, Winnsboro, Great Falls, Heath Springs, Catawba, Gaffney, and Union.

Helping You Get Organized

A strong case is built on solid documentation, and pulling that together takes time and the right approach. I tell every client what we need and why, and we work through it together so it never feels overwhelming.

For Family Law Matters

Divorce, custody, alimony, and property division cases turn on a clear financial and personal record. We help you assemble the pieces, including:

  • Income records, tax returns, and pay information for support and alimony calculations.
  • Account statements, retirement and investment records, and property documents for equitable division.
  • A timeline of the marriage and any agreements, for divorce and separate maintenance matters.

For Bankruptcy Matters

A Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 filing depends on accurate financial disclosure. We walk you through gathering:

  • A full list of creditors, balances, and recent statements.
  • Income documentation for the means test and the budget.
  • Records of assets, vehicles, and any property you want to protect.

Let’s Talk

You do not have to figure any of this out on your own. Call me, tell me what is going on, and we will sit down and go through your situation. No pressure and no judgment, just a straight conversation about where you stand and how I can help.
