Why hire an Attorney? To get an extra edge in Court -- you want someone to fight for you--Because you want to WIN ! Â
Protecting clients by Knowing the Law and the Facts, the Evidence and the Tactics to present it correctly- with hard work and preparation - gives Attorney Bogen's Clients every possible extra edge to obtain the best results. There is always a fine balance between negotiation and hard nosed litigation. The best lawyers know when (and how) to mix them together, and sift them apart.  Attorney Bogen, through years of experience, works hard to get the job done.
Court battles are demanding. The law is chaotic, challenging, and, it can be overwhelming. Most people fare better with a partner in the process-- a trusted Attorney with experience, tact and discretion - one you trust, to help you. Some Lawyers just "show up" for Court - hoping that they don't lose... today. Great Lawyers show up - WELL PREPARED. Attention to detail and nuance, which comes from Education, Training and Experience.
When you walk into a Courtroom alone, No one sits by you to explain the rules. If you miss something--if you leave things out, well, you lose. You don't know to object? Then you waived the objection. That's the rule. Make mistakes- (and you will)--you won't be able to correct it later. Or, it'll cost a lot more to fix than to do it right the first time.
The law is a battle of wits, application of strategy and hard work, inventing creative approaches to solve complex problems. Attorney Bogen's three decades of experiences as a Court Referee, Prosecutor, Guardian Ad Litem, Mediator, and as Private Counsel, litigating and negotiating settlements in thousands of cases, enable him to provide clients with decades of proven insight and successful results.
Imagine a Judge or Magistrate who has to spend HOURS listening to a person who thinks that they can "litigate" their case, after watching a few TV reruns of "Law and Order", "Better Call Saul", or "Night Court". What should be a fifteen (15) minute trial turns into a three (3) hour circus sideshow. The result? I guarantee you-- It's NOT going to be good.Â
Walking into a Court without a Lawyer is like walking into the Gunfight with a Two Inch Penknife, a Rubber Chicken and a Paper Airplane. It sounds funny -- until it's you.
Did your Attorney tell you what to expect before you entered the Courtroom? What evidence and issues will be addressed at each step of a legal proceeding? What are the legal issues? What is your burden of proof? What evidence is admissible? (And, What isn't?) Strategy for trial should be set long before the day of trial. Was proper discovery conducted? Do you have an idea what to expect that day? What are your goals for the case? Each case requires a plan, a strategy. What's yours?
Attorney Bogen will interview you personally-- reviewing the information and asking specific questions to develop a tailored approach to your specific legal needs. It is, in part, a streamlining process, reaching into the case to locate and isolate the critical evidence and issues. The more complete the information -- the more accurate Attorney Bogen can be in assessing your precise legal needs and recommending one or more options to address your legal issues.
You don't set up a mirror to perform "Do-It-Yourself" Brain Surgery -- why go into a Courtroom where your legal rights are at stake without Experienced Legal Counsel?
Be prepared to roll up your sleeves and work- Attorney Bogen sets high expectations of his Clients.
Remember- Good lawyering is hard work. Demand the best.
