Judge Haverkamp - The Most Qualified Candidate
I have devoted my entire career to practice in the Cooke County Courts. If you have any questions about my qualifications, work ethic, character and integrity ask those people in a position to know. Ask any of the law enforcement officers I have worked with through the years, ask any of the lawyers who regularly appear in my Court and ask the courthouse personnel I interact with daily.
