Domestic violence is penalized under the laws for assault and battery, but the penalties reach beyond a misdemeanor or felony.

    "Working with this firm was seamless, efficient, and super-friendly."
    Working with this firm was seamless, efficient, and super-friendly. Wills and trusts were new to us, and we walked away from the experience with everything we needed as well as a much more thorough understanding of the details behind them. As an added bonus they were part of my company's legal benefits network. I would highly recommend this firm for your needs.
    "I Had Nothing To Worry About"
    I was informed on what was going on and what to expect. I felt like I was treated with respect, and that my situation was very important to the firm. And I had nothing to worry about.
    "I cannot recommend Connor and Delaney more!"
    I researched and wanted a lawyer familiar with military families and the Haugen Law Firm was it! I had so many different factors in my divorce and child custody, and you truly get what you pay for. I am so thankful to have found them and for all the guidance and help through the process. I cannot recommend Connor and Delaney more! This is already a stressful situation and to be able to have a team to help me better understand the ins and outs of the legal tidbits and process helped. It was well worth the cost and even though it feels expensive I know without a doubt that my divorce and custody was done right, and the paperwork shows it. They helped me think of things a regular divorce lawyer wouldn't know due to being a military family. If I need legal help again, I will be coming back for sure! I cannot thank them enough for all their support and patience with me during the process with all of my questions and walking me through the long process.
    "Made Me Comfortable In All My Needs"
    Aimee answered all my questions and she made me feel comfortable in all my needs. I would use the Haugen Law Firm for all my probate needs and would give my highest recommendation.
    "Haugen Law Firm, P.C. is a respectable group."
    Haugen Law Firm, P.C. is a respectable group. Connor was very kind and understanding in all aspects of my case. He explained how the case would be handled from the very beginning, and through the complete process. As for my part, once the process to stop income withholding started, I mainly stayed quiet and let them do their job. All necessary communications throughout the process were very concise. I will likely be calling on Connor again in the near future to handle my estate planning. I am very grateful for their help.
