James Haug, excellent attorney

Mr. Haug assisted me with a dispute in regards to my dog and another pet owner. He was helpful, kind, and non-judgmental about the situation. He informed me about the laws, codes, and regulations so that I felt informed and in charge. The dispute was solved without requiring court action, but Mr. Hau...g's advice assisted me in making sure the police, the other party, and myself were all doing the right thing. Mr. Haug is also pleasant and polite. He was able to listen to my concerns and get to the heart of the matter without rushing me or making me feel dumb. Thanks, James!

Excellent Service and Attention!

James took on a very difficult case. My child had been injured and he listened to my concerns and was able to provide direction and a positive outcome. If you are looking for thoughtful and attentive counsel – you have found it with James.

"Jimmy came out into his own law firm swinging. And his very first medical malpractice verdict was over the fence (in excess of $1,000,000.00!) Since then, his skills in this and other areas have only increased and Jimmy has been able to serve more clients injured by medical negligence to complete satisfaction (as good as it can get notwithstandiing their unfortunate injury circumstances). I highly recommend James Haug."
