About Curt

For over 27 years, Clients rely on our attention to detail and hard work to produce winning results.

Court battles are demanding. Good Lawyers show up for Court - PREPARED, ready for more than the expected outcome. Being ready for alternate contingencies takes thought and preparation.  Attention to detail and nuance. and, most importantly, experience. The law is a battle of wits, application of strategy and work ethic to create creative approaches to solve complex problems.   Attorney Bogen's experiences as a Court Referee, Prosecutor, Guardian Ad Litem, Mediator, and Private Practitioner, litigating and negotiating settlements in thousands of cases, enable him to provide clients with decades of proven insight.

No smoke and mirrors here-- Attorney Bogen believes a client needs to know and understand  might expect, before ever entering a Courtroom.

When you first meet for your initial consultation, you may wish to arrive a few minutes early. You will be given an Intake Packet-- paperwork to fill out,  requesting specific information about your type of case. The packet is the property of the office and must not be removed from the office.

It is required that you provide that information BEFORE the initial consultation. When you complete the packet and provide accurate information, Attorney Bogen will interview you personally-- reviewing the information and asking specific questions to develop a tailored approach to your specific legal needs. The more complete the information -- the more accurate Attorney Bogen can be in addressing your precise legal needs and recommending one or more options to address your legal needs.

The law is chaotic, challenging, and can be overwhelming. Most people fare better with a partner in the process-- a trusted Attorney with experience, tact and discretion whom you trust, to help you navigate its intricate channels.

You don't send a gunslinger into a gunfight with a pen-knife -- why would anyone go into a Court battle without experienced legal Counsel? 

Protecting clients by being proactive is critical to providing quality representation. Know the facts, know the law, AND know the preferences of each Judge and Magistrate-- to give your client every possible extra edge which the law reasonably permits. Representation needs to be upright and ethical.  There is always a fine balance between negotiation and hard nosed litigation--and lawyers need to know when and how to mix them together, and sift them apart.

Remember- Good lawyering is hard work.  Demand the best.

Review Curt Bogen

THE BEST ATTORNEY IN TRUMBULL & MAHONING COUNTY, & BEYOND

Posted by anonymousSat Aug 30 2014

Curt Bogen is THEE BEST attorney in Trumbull & Mahoning County, & Beyond! The first time I hired him was a Victory. I just hired him for the 2nd. time and guess what? You guessed correctly, another Victory. Curt Bogen is Brilliant! He's smart on the law and he knows it well. He goes into the court room extremely prepared, confident, and steadfast. This is what everyone wants in an attorney. He's NOT a "let the chips fall where they may" kind of attorney. And he certainly isn't the type of atty. that's going to "wing it", as many will do. Curt strives for the outcome you want and inevitably gets it. No surprise here! This is what you get with an over the top, stellar, and excellent attorney like Curt Bogen. He's a scholar on the law! More important, he is well prepared for what the other side might attempt to do. There's no such thing as Curt ever being "blind-sided" by anything. He has an innate ability to "foresee" all aspects of the case and acts accordingly. He enters the courtroom prepared, and then some. The Best Attorney by far in Trumbull, Mahoning Counties & Beyond. The Best of The Best! JF 8/29/14

An excellant attorney for all of the single dads out there that need help with custody or help with child support.

Posted by johnMon Jul 14 2014

There is no other attorney in the state of Ohio that could've have handled our case like he has done. Our case was quite complicated to say the least. I had recently moved from Georgia to the state of Ohio. But yet I needed an attorney that could help me with New York Child Support. For several years New York Child Support was stating that I owed 80,000.00 in child support. Which in fact I had only owed 1616.00.It was a very complicated mess to say the least. So I needed an attorney that knew the laws in 3 different states being that Ohio, Georgia and New York was involved. Trust me when I tell you, it was not an easy task. Attorney Curt Bogen was the only attorney that had the knowledge to handle this case. He worked so hard for us and put many hours into this case. It ended up that Curt Bogen had won our case for us. It was a case that no other attorney could've handled. Curt Bogen also helped us with emergency child custody. Being that I'm the dad, that's not any easy task either, being that the mother always gets custody before the dad. It was yet another complicated battle. There again another victory thanks to attorney Curt Bogen. Attorney Curt Bogen is a very brilliant man with a lot of wisdom. We appreciate all the hard work that he has done for us.
