Anders Haugen
Founding partner · Moorhead office
Anders started the firm on Center Avenue in Moorhead and handles child support and changes to old orders, the cases where the numbers matter most.
Anders came to family law after working with farm and trucking families on their taxes. He reads a Schedule F or a settlement sheet the way other lawyers read a contract, and finds the income a support worksheet tends to miss.
He also handles requests to change custody and support when a job, a move or a child’s needs change.
Handles
- Child support
- Changing existing orders
- Self-employed and seasonal income

How Anders works
Anders runs the support guideline both ways before every meeting, once with your figures and once with the other parent’s, so you see the range a judge is likely to land in.
When a client’s income drops, he files for a change right away. Support keeps adding up until a court changes it, and he would rather you never face arrears you didn’t need to.
