Biography
Why hire an Attorney? Because walking into a Court without an Attorney is like walking into a Gunfight - unarmed. Not a good Plan!
Court battles are demanding. The law is chaotic, challenging, and, it can be overwhelming. People do better with a partner in the process-- a trusted Attorney with experience, tact and discretion - one you trust. Having a Lawyer protects you. Court battles require Preparation. Hard Work. BEFORE you walk into Court.
Knowing the Law and your case's unique Facts, Attorney Bogen fights- HARD- to give his Clients every possible edge, seeking to obtain the best results. There is a fine balance between negotiation and hard nosed litigation. The best lawyers know when (and how) to mix them together.
Some Lawyers just "show up" for Court - hoping that they don't lose... today. Great Lawyers show up - WELL PREPARED. With a Plan. Using Tactics, Education, Training and Experience.
When you walk into a Courtroom - alone - no one sits by you to explain the rules. If you leave things out, you lose. Period. You don't know to object? Then you waived the objection. You think you "saved money" by not hiring a Lawyer? What happens when you found out that you made mistakes? That you left out arguments, assets, and issues? It is going to cost more to fix your mistakes, if you can, than it would have cost - if you had only hired a Lawyer and did it right the first time.
The law is a battle of wits, application of hard work and strategy. Court battles require fast thinking, planning, and sometimes, inventing approaches to solve complex problems in an instant. Attorney Bogen has spent over thirty-six (36) years of professional practice, as a Court Referee, Prosecutor, Guardian Ad Litem, Mediator, and as Private Counsel, negotiating, mediating, and litigating settlements in thousands of cases, providing generations of clients with proven insight and successful results.
Imagine a Judge or Magistrate who has to spend HOURS listening to someone who thinks that they can "litigate" their case, after watching a few TV reruns of "Law and Order", "Better Call Saul", or "Night Court". The End Result? The Judge is not going to be amused. I guarantee-- It's NOT going to be good.
Did your Attorney tell you what to expect before you entered the Courtroom? What are your legal issues? What is your burden of proof? How do you obtain your evidence? How do you get your exhibits admitted into evidence? Was proper discovery conducted? What are your goals for the case? Strategy for trial should be set long before the trial date. What's your strategy?
Attorney Bogen will interview you personally-- taking all the time necessary to review your case, asking specific questions to dig into your case, developing a tailored approach to your specific legal issues. A streamlining process, isolating critical evidence and issues. The more complete the information -- the more accurate Attorney Bogen can be in assessing your precise legal needs and recommending options to address your needs.
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.

Mr. Bogen …. The man the myth the legend!!!!
Attorney Bogen not only dismantled a spiteful ex, but his advice on a daily was always on point. His ability to foresee the future of how this divorce/custody battle would end was unreal. I consider Curt not just the best attorney in the state of Ohio, but I also consider him a friend. His ability to...

Excellence in action!
First and foremost, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Attorney Bogen, as he has been very helpful during my long and, shall we say, tedious divorce. That being said, I would whole heartedly recommend him to anyone seeking legal advice, trial litigation or even divorce proceedings. Curt,...
