What is Considered "Marital Property" in Texas?
In general, any property that was owned by one party before marriage; acquired during marriage through a gift; purchased during marriage with separate funds, or that was partitioned to one party through a prenuptial agreement is considered to be separate property. This property is not subject to division during divorce.
Any salary, wages, income, assets acquired during marriage, assets obtained on credit, and on-hand assets at the time of divorce can be considered marital property and are eligible for division.

After meeting with Mr. Haugen, I felt he was honest, qualified and had a commitment to my best interest, which my previous attorney failed to do. Mr. Haugen was up against salvaging my situation my previous attorney made a mess of. Mr. Haugen is an honest and extremely competent attorney who is tough, yet remains calm and collected. He salvaged the mess I was in and helped me to move on. For that I greatly appreciate his service.

Divorce is a very stressfull life event. John and Delaney put me at ease and took the stress out of my situation. I cannot stress enough how at ease they made me feel, knowing that everything was handled. They gave me the confidence that we could, and did, get what I needed and was asking for quickly without going to court. Thank you Haugen Law!!- Gary
