We understand that custody decisions are often made more difficult by personal desires. In your quest to achieve a favorable outcome, turn to the firm that understands family law better than most. Our family law child custody lawyer has been representing Flower Mound residents for years and never shies away from defending your rights.

Align Your Goals With a Firm That Cares!
There are two broad custody categories – physical and legal. Physical determines where the child lives and spends their time, while legal applies to each parent's ability to make decisions for their child. The court can assign joint custody, which means that the parents share time with the child and make decisions together, sole custody, which means that one parent gets both physical and legal custody, or split custody.
The following factors are considered with establishing custody orders:
- The parents willingness to work together
- The child's best interests
- Each parent's financial resources
- The age and number of children
- Where each parent lives
- The child's relationships with the parents
More than anything, the court seeks to ensure that the child's best interests are upheld at all times. Your desires for your child may look different than the court's opinion and going without legal assistance can be risky. At Haugen Law Firm, P.C., we are dedicated to preserving your relationship with your child.
You can count on our firm to stand by your side throughout the entirety of your case. Known for our client-centered approach and ability to secure positive results, there is a reason why we are a trusted name in Texas.

"John and Delaney put me at ease and took the stress out of my situation."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

"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.

"Salvaged My Situation"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.
