OUR STORY
From the young age of 7, Karem Gloria Hadjez, Esq. knew she wanted to become an attorney. Her dream became a reality in 2004 when she became a licensed attorney. In 2007, she opened the Hadjez Law Firm and shortly thereafter in 2008, Karem joined forces with Michaelle Gonzalez Paulson, Esq. (elected to the bench as a member of the judiciary in 2010) and together they created the Law Center of South Florida, P.A.
The idea behind the name was to allow the firm to expand to into a multi-practice office. However, it quickly became evident that there was a need to focus on one area of the law. The realization was that the idea of growth can be built and expanded by learning more in that one area, which in this case was Family Law.
Over the years, Law Center of South Florida, P.A. has played a pivotal role in the lives of numerous families providing conscious and expert legal assistance to help them in getting through the toughest of times. The Law Center of South Florida, P.A. is committed to helping families and will be there every step of the way.

"I cannot say enough positive things about my attorney Karem Hadjez. Although my divorce was out of the ordinary and luckily ended up as an amicable agreement, it took many unprecedented turns. Karem was there for me every step of the way. She guided me, assisted me, and helped me understand my legal rights. She was honest and truly showed empathy. The level of professionalism was top notch. I honestly do not know what I would've done without her."
"The Law Center of South FL, PA helped my partner through his child-support and divorce case back in 2014, We would recommend Karem and her team with our eyes closed. Back then Brittney was her paralegal and she was amazing, she always kept us updated on everything. Karem would guide us and explain anything we did not understand. We can’t even explain how eternally grateful we are to have been recommended to Karem Hadjez, ESQ."

I can not thank them enough. If you find yourself needing a team to help you choose Law Center of South Florida."

"The Law Center of South Florida was nothing short of remarkable from the very first day I sought legal counsel for my divorce. Karem, the lead attorney and Brittney, her assisting attorney were attentive and compassionate yet fierce and determined as my legal representatives.
They also assisted me on a number of occasions, following my divorce for legal guidance on issues re: co parenting, etc. I highly recommend this incredible duo who I consider gems in all of Miami-Dade county!"
