Great Experience!

Mr. Hogan was more than just a lawyer. He handled our situation with upmost care, compassion & attentiveness. He really cared about us as clients and even followed up with us after it was all resolved for updates on our well being. On top of that he was extremely knowledgeable. I would trust him with... any of my legal needs. He’s top tier!

Best lawyer in Lubbock!

This man is a true hero to my family! He helped us get my mother out of a nursing home and back home with her family when we were about to lose hope. He went above and beyond to stand up for her rights and called to check on her afterwards. He was so caring and compassionate and I’m sure he just adde...d years to my mom’s life. We are forever grateful!

An amazing lawyer

I cannot brag on this man and his staff enough. I have used him for SEVERAL different things; forming my LLC, serving a cease and desist letter, and getting us exactly what we needed with family matters. He is fast, polite, thorough, and professional. His staff also went over and beyond to handle thi...ngs quickly and professionally. Not once did my family or myself feel like we were treated as a number or like they didn't care. I would recommend Mr. Hogan to any friend or loved one for any matter. Thank you Hogan law firm for everything!

Got my Green Card

I was stressed out about getting my green card. I met Mr. Hogan and he went into great details, explaining to me the pros and cons of the application. Mr. Hogan sat down with me for almost a couple of hours painstakingly going through the application form and answering all my questions. He also e...xplained legal loopholes (I485J) that I could use to work if my company didn't agree to sponsor my visa, but that I had no idea about! He answered all my queries clearly and immediately. He knew what he was doing! I was worried that it would take 2 years to get the green card (that's how long the delay is), but I got it in 5 months!!!! This means that the form was filled out perfectly! I was worried about the medical exam, but he knew who I should go to, what I needed to take with me, and it went smoothly. I hate legal and technical work, and my mind just turns numb. Mr. Hogan made everything appear so easy that I’m glad I just paid him a stipend to take care of it, instead of trying to figure it out all on my own. This is such a major relief!!!! I’m glad it’s over!! Phew!!!

Extremely professional and knowledgeable

Just got my charges dropped due to Rob Hogans expert knowledge in the laws, past court cases he could recall off the top of his head and hard work that he put into my case. If you need an expert to represent you he is the man I would recommend.

Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
