The Paraclete Law Center, LLC

A mentally and physically draining custody battle landed me needing an attorney to regain custody back of my 12 year old son that had then at that point been living out of state with his paternal aunt for almost 7 years. From my very first interaction with Attorney Dessow she made feel at ease with whatever battle was to come and I knew I wanted no one else but her to represent me during that trying time. To my surprise the process was so easy and smooth and I truly believe it was because Attorney Dessow went above and beyond what was expected. She was very personable and made sure to answer any questions or address any concerns I had. The paralegals I spoke to during that time were also wonderful. I would recommend Attorney Dessow to anyone going through custody issues. She makes sure that thing are done in the children’s best interest and you can tell that she honestly cares about every client she has and their unique cases!! An exceptional law firm!!

Review for Attorney Kharimah Dessow: I had the privilege of working with Attorney Lauren Waklatsi and Attorney Kharimah Dessow recently for help with child visitation, and I must say that they truly are exceptional at what they do. From the moment I reached out to them, they were professional, empathetic, and extremely efficient. Their great reputation certainly precedes them, and I can confidently say that they exceeded all my expectations. Their direct approach and keen attention to detail ensured that everything I asked for was delivered in a timely manner. Thanks to Lauren and Kharimah, the outcome of my case was better than I could have imagined, and it has greatly impacted my life in a positive way. I would give them a solid 10 out of 10 and would not hesitate to refer anybody in need of legal assistance to them. Their expertise, dedication, and outstanding service truly set them apart.

Kharimah is an amazing and passionate attorney! She gives 100% to her clients in every case. I know this both personally and professionally. Anyone needing a real advocate in the Sumter/Columbia area for attorney representation or for guardian work, should certainly reach out to her office!

When I first began my journey to divorce I honestly did not know where to start. I looked around for different attorneys that I felt had my best interest at heart but did not connect with anyone. A colleague of my mother’s suggested Kharimah Dessow and I gave her a call. She met with me and I knew in that moment I wanted her to help me through this difficult time. She has the sweetest demeanor but she is straight to the point. I didn’t know what to expect when our first hearing came up but as unprepared as I felt, she was more than ready to take on the challenge. Not to say she went for blood but with everything I provided her, she achieved every goal that I had. She worked tirelessly even with as uncooperative as my ex-husband was. It took a good bit of time to achieve the divorce but she was willing to put the time and effort in to make sure that it moved along without any setbacks. I am more that pleased with attorney Dessow and wouldn’t choose anyone else for the job. 10/10 would always recommend!!!!

Attorney Dessow and her team were phenomenal! They assisted us with navigating and resolving a difficult and emotional legal matter. I am so appreciative of their hard work and dedication to our legal issue. We are so appreciative of their hard work!
