When my family needed for the first time an Elder Care Lawyer, my neighbor highly suggested Robert F. Brogan. I have used his services for my Aunt, my Mother and Father, my husband, Richard and myself for 5 years. With his expert knowledge, he carefully and thoroughly straightened out our dear family's "legal" and potential health care issues. He has been more than a pleasure to work with.
His mannerisms are empathetic and kind. I always suggest him to others!

I was the guardian of my aunt who had dementia and needed long term nursing care. Mr. Brogan set up trusts that not only provided a safe place for my aunt's funds to provide a quality level of care but also to safeguard her estate. Both Bob and Joan in his office were always available to me to discuss and explain the rather complicated legal aspects of my aunt's trusts in plain English. I estimate we saved over $160 K as a direct result of Bob Brogan's work. I would recommend him highly.

Over the course of our 2.5 year relationship, Mr. Brogan has consistently been very responsive to my inquires whether by phone, email or in person. He has also provided invaluable guidance to my son's who are co-executors of their mother's estate. His staff is also very prompt in responding to requests for information or appointments. All documents needed for any transactions have been error free and readily available and promptly submitted to other agencies, when necessary.

During a crisis time, when my wife was and still is in need of Hospice care, I sought out, through the recommendation of the Stroke Caregivers Association, Healthsouth, Toms River, NJ, Bob Brogan for assistance. I was and continue to be well rewarded by such a caring, compassionate, and professional person. I would highly recommend Bob to anyone in need of legal advice as well as a sympathetic listener. God Bless he and his staff for their services to those in need.

Hired Attorney Robert Francis Brogan

There was a discrepancy in the will. After 5 phone calls and 2 emails, he never returned my phone calls or replied to my emails. Finally the paralegal was able to help me. I was very disappointed with him. I wanted to recommend him to others who could use his services; but due to his lack of attentiveness, I don't feel comfortable suggesting him.

While Robert Brogan may be a skilled Elder Care Attorney, he and his office are completely unresponsive. Should not take on additional clients if he cannot handle responsibly existing ones.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions
