Divorce
When push comes to shove, sometimes you need to take a step back, assess the situation, and find an alternative solution. When it comes to family law and divorce cases, this is especially true. Most divorcing couples prefer resolving the case amicably, however, the adversarial legal system can create a more difficult environment to resolve differences.
Child Support
Child support is calculated using guidelines found in Texas Family Code § 154.125. When an obligor's net resources are no more than $7,500 per month, the guidelines for child support are as follows...
Child Custody and Visitation
A parenting plan is established between two parents in order to determine how the children will be raised, the responsibilities of each parent, custody and visitation rights, and how important decisions will be made. Whether it is court-ordered or created at will, a parenting plan is an essential tool that is used to avoid any future conflict between two parents who are divorced or separated.
Paternity
Our goal is to settle the paternity issues of our clients and bring them peace of mind. If the father of the child does not believe that the child is his, a free paternity testing can be done. In general, it is best to establish paternity at the hospital right after the child is born with a Denton County birth certificate. This takes away from a lot of unnecessary confusion that can come up. To learn more about establishing paternity with a birth certificate in Denton County, call our office!
Premarital Agreement
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.
Spousal Support
Alimony provides a means for a lower-income spouse to receive support during and after the divorce process until they are able to support themselves. Alimony is also known as spousal support or maintenance.

Criminal Defense
Do not hesitate to fill out the case evaluation form below if you need quality representation and counsel for any family law or criminal defense matter.The firm is more than capable of handling your case, no matter how complex, and offers weekend and after-hours appointments to meet your needs. Contact the firm at your earliest convenience to maximize your chances of a swift and successful divorce.
DUI/DWI
There are a number of important factors that must be involved in order for a DWI arrest to be lawful. Your charges could be dropped, or your case dismissed, if it can be proven that the evidence against you is faulty or invalid. For example, law enforcement officers are not supposed to make DWI stops unless they witness evidence of intoxication, or someone has called in to report the suspected drunk driver. In order to actually arrest someone on charges of DWI, the individual must fail any of several forms of field sobriety tests and / or a blood alcohol content (BAC) test. In most other cases, you may be able to fight your DWI based on police misconduct.
Robbery
Burglary
White Collar Crimes
Theft
Misdemeanors
Class B misdemeanors incur a fine of up to $2,000, a jail sentence of up to a year, or both. First-degree felonies incur a prison sentence of 5 years to life, as well as a fine of up to $10,000.
Drug Crimes
After being arrested for an alleged drug crime, you should take immediate action to secure legal representation. Depending on the type of drug charges you are facing and the specific circumstances of the alleged offense, you may be at risk of receiving penalties that range from fines and probation to decades of imprisonment.
Assault
Assault could be threatening to attack/injure someone, physically hitting them, throwing an object at their person, and a number of other actions. There is also aggravated assault, which is assault involving serious bodily injury and/or the exhibition of a deadly weapon during the commission of the assault.
Juvenile Crimes
Arson
Other property crimes involve the destruction or devaluation of someone else's property. Arson and vandalism are prime examples. Intentionally setting someone else's property on fire or defacing it (such as spray painting a building or throwing rocks at windows) can result in serious misdemeanor or felony charges.
Restraining Order
Texas Family Code § 71.004 defines "family violence" as any act that causes injury or fear of immediate harm in a spouse, child, or household member of the alleged offender. Domestic violence is penalized under the laws for assault and battery, but the penalties reach beyond a misdemeanor or felony. If convicted of domestic violence, you could be required to leave your home and stay away from your family due to a protective order or restraining order. You may also lose custody of your children. Make sure that your rights are defended by retaining a defense lawyer from Haugen Law Firm, P.C. as soon as possible.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
Living Revocable Trusts are equally important, to protect the family that is left behind after a loved one passes. When prepared by a Haugen Law Firm attorney, this document provides safety, peace of mind, and security. Preparing for death is necessary element of life, and the Haugen Law Firm can provided skilled representation while meeting the goals of each client. Our firm believes in providing guidance through the complex process of estate planning by safeguarding estates from improper handling in the future.
Wills
Most people are familiar with a Last Will and Testament. This legal document ensures that the Testator, the party creating the Last Will and Testament, can leave their property to their loved ones how they see fit. It is a legal tool used for protection in the event of death. Everyone, regardless of whether they are young or elderly, should have a Last Will and Testament.
Trusts
Power of Attorney
While there are many different types of Powers of Attorney, among the most important are the Statutory Durable Power of Attorney and Medical Power of Attorney. These legal documents allow a loved one to make financial and medical decisions on your behalf, should you be unable to do so. For example, if tragedy were to strike, you would have already selected who may continue to manage your financial and medical affairs. It is important to understand that these documents are only used in the event of legal incapacity. You will continue to manage your financial and medical decisions until a medical doctor verifies that incapacity.
Probate
