Best LAWYER

Craig Haston is the best family lawyer. His staff is professional, understanding and detail oriented. Our family had a previous lawyer and we would make minimal steps each time at court. Once Craig was on our team we have made huge strides into protecting the kids. Craig is a family man and it sho...ws when you communicate with him on the children's needs. He truly wants to see your family move in the right direction and not living in the court room. Craig knows the law...... he knows what to prepare for and knows what angle to use to ensure that you are not living with a decree that makes it difficult to follow. Craig has respect from his peers and the Judges when he walks into the courtroom. Everyone in the room knows who he is and looks up to him. If you are on the fence on who to hire for a lawyer, you need to look no further than the Craig Haston Family Law Team.

Craig is the Best

When Craig became my attorney I was a DAD with Primary Custody. The Mother of my children never does what she is suppose to do and rarely showed up for visits. Today, I am Sole Custodial Parent and Craig has worked with us to protect the children until she can show that she is FIT to be a parent. ...Craig's team is professional and I would recommend them.

So so

Nice guy, who I think meant well. However, for a board-certified family law attorney, he missed out on some nuances in family law (that were enacted over 9 months prior) that would have been beneficial to my case. When I confronted him with some of the issues, of course, he was defensive then blamed ...me for sub-par results. As a result, I did not pay him for the last billable hour of service (mind you, I paid well over $7K in total services). I ended up hiring another attorney to finish up my case.

I note that when a person states that they are unhappy, they also do not provide their name and they speak in generalizations that make it impossible to respond. As in any area of life, making everyone happy is impossible and generally it is the unhappy ones that want to comment. We regret if this person was unhappy with our services and we continue to strive to provide the best possible representation for all of our clients.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
