About Robert
Biography
Whether it is a serious automobile accident or a workplace injury, accidental injuries can leave a family hopeless and grief-stricken, with nowhere to turn. Since 1996, I have had the privilege of working to put injured families back on the right track, and helping to ease the stress of unintentional injuries -- one family at a time.
While other attorneys practice in large firms, or devote their lives to working for big corporations, it is my privilege to represent individual people. People like you or your family members, who have been neglected or abused by insurance companies and big corporations, to recover fair and just compensation.
I am proud to call Lubbock "home" and I am a Texas Tech Red Raider two-times over, having earned my undergraduate and law degrees at Tech. I am father to four great kids. In my "spare time" I enjoy hunting, fishing, hiking, geocaching, and studying about military aviation.

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.
