Outstanding Attorney Who Gets Results!!!

Donna Hougen is an excellent attorney who prevailed in my two trials obtaining me a substantial award of spousal maintenance (8 years) and child support (5 years). Her knowledge of the law and trial experience was the only reason I could start my life over with the awards the judge gave me. Donna can... be tough yet compassionate and I appreciated that combination because it helped me stay focused on my case and as a witness in my own trial. Donna also won an award of my attorney's fees to be paid by my ex-husband. I would highly recommend Donna.

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.
