Posted by Jeff | May 05, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Child Support

Forever Grateful!

I wanted to leave a review, because I feel grateful for what John and his team have accomplished for me. I don't ever leave online reviews, but I felt like I needed to because of what has transpired. Many years ago I hired John to handle my child support arrears case. After many months of hell and... trying to show evidence of payments, John was able to win the case and have my arrearage expunged. Now just recently I had to hire John again for modification to my divorcee decree. After meeting with John and going over what was needed for change, he put together a plan for me and help me get the appropriate changes. We never made it to court because John worked it out with my ex through mediation. We got what was needed for change, and I couldn't be more happy. John is not only a great lawyer, but I now consider him a friend. I feel like he really cares about his clients, and will work for you to get the best results. He's respectful, knowledgeable, and most of all caring. I will be using John if I ever need an attorney again.

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"John Haugen is the most effective family lawyer I have ever had the privilege of observing in court and on a daily basis while working in his office. Not only will he do an amazing job of standing up and fighting for you in the courtroom, he also truly cares about each and every client and/or potential client who walks through his door. I have witnessed him take on clients who had lost their children and all hope of their return. He helped them devise a plan and, in the end, they were able regain custody of their children. I have witnessed him take on clients who were unaware that they were being taken advantage of by their spouse. He was able to fight for them and get them the property division and time with their children that they deserve. If you are looking for a lawyer who is professional, competent, and who will act as an aggressive advocate to accomplish your goals, I highly recommend that you hire John Haugen."
