Biography
Why hire an Attorney? Because walking into a Court without an Attorney is like walking into a Gunfight - unarmed. Not a good Plan!
Your Lawyer protects you - by Careful Preparation, Hard Work BEFORE ever walking into Court- Knowing the Law and the Facts, taking advantage of and maximizing the benefit of your Evidence and using the Tactics to present it correctly. Attorney Bogen Works to give his 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. Using Tactics, 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. Court battles require fast thinking, often in an instant - planning, but sometimes, creating inventing 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". A fifteen (15) minute trial turns into a three (3) hour Circus Sideshow. The result? The Judge is not going to be amused. I guarantee you-- It's NOT going to be good.
Each case requires a plan, a strategy. Did your Attorney tell you what to expect before you entered the Courtroom? What are the legal issues in your case, and what distractions need to be filtered out as irelevant? How do you obtain your evidence? What evidence is admissible? (And, What isn't?) What is your burden of proof? Was proper discovery conducted? Do you have an idea what to expect on your Court date? What are your goals for the case? Strategy for trial should be set long before the day of trial. 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.
