Saying About Us

Several years ago, I was completing my Master’s Degree Education and was preparing to apply to Medical School. Unfortunately, I was arrested during that time and ended up pleading guilty to a misdemeanor reckless driving charge. I had never been in legal trouble before and I thought that this would ruin my medical career before it even started. I contacted Jay Bogden, seeking his guidance in how to proceed in the application process with this “red flag” on my record. Mr. Bogden was kind, attentive and timely in helping me prepare statements for my applications and I was accepted to my first choice for medical school. Four years later, I was preparing to graduate medical school and enter “The Match.” Like most job applications, medical residencies ask that candidates disclose whether or not they have been convicted of a crime. I dreaded answering this question, so I called Jay Bogden again. I was unsure of whether or not he would remember me; but he met me with the same kindness as he had several years ago. He assuaged my concerns and he advised me as to how best approach the situation. I matched into residency at my first choice. 3 years later, I was ready to graduate residency and I was applying for my medical license. And again the question presented itself; “Have you ever been convicted of a misdemeanor or felony?” At this point, it became abundantly clear to me that I would always carry the burden of my past transgressions. However, I wasn’t willing to compromise on my goals as a physician. Again, Jay was there for me. I got my medical license without any issue. Shortly after that, I decided to pursue fellowship training in Critical Care Medicine. At this point, I knew who to call. Jay was there for me once again. At every point in my career, for nearly 10 years, Jay has answered when I’ve had questions about how to navigate the medical system with conviction on my record. And today, I’ve been accepted to and I am preparing for the fellowship that Ive been working toward for nearly a decade. I may have made poor choices in the past, but with Jay Bogden’s help and his continued commitment to helping me with my career, I have been able to realize my goals in the medical field. He can help you too.

I am very happy with my decision to hire and work with Joe Bogdan. Not only was he extremely helpful and informative, he was responsive to all my calls and texts which was really important to me. One thing I really appreciated while working with Joe Bogdan was his honesty regarding the possible outcomes of my case. He prepared me for all possible outcomes. When shopping for a lawyer, I was looking for 3 things- good communication, honest advice, and experience. After working with Joe, I can confidently say he has all 3 skills. Additionally, his assistant Sheila was very pleasant to work with. She was compassionate and made communication between Joe and I easy and smooth.

I know what you going thru and how you feel right now. When your professional career is on the line, there’s so much anxiety and uncertainty, I was once in your position, investigated by IDFPR, facing potential HARSH career ending penalties. Jay started working on my case right away and during the whole process he gave me countless crucial legal and career advises. Thanks to Jay, my case was dismissed. He saved my career and my family. The whole experience with him was 10/10. Please do yourself a favor and let him handle your case.

Joseph Bogdan’s law office came to the rescue when I was struggling to obtain Illinois nursing licensure by endorsement. After having my application deemed deficient on three separate occasions due to prior charges, I felt I had hit a wall and would never get my license. I completed a quick phone consult with the office, provided them with all my records and information, and created a plan with the office for how we were going to address the deficiencies. We were able to submit updated records to the licensing board within three business days of our phone consult and miraculously, I was granted licensure the following day. The office personnel were extremely knowledgeable, friendly, responsive, and understanding. I would recommend them to anyone struggling to obtain licensure.

I was browsing through the net and came across Attorney Bogdan's lawfirm with lots of good review i called and got immediate response they are organize and easy to work with. I place my trust and they did not disappoint. Amanda who was assigned in my case is very helpful and assuring. She gave all updates being made, took my worries and assured that everything was taken cared of. To anyone who is needing legal assistance, their expertise is highly recommended.

By R Young on Apr 17, 2022

Mr. Bogdan was extremely helpful and professional in representing us. His personal knowledge of the Illinois Professional License agency was very comforting as we worked through the process. His entire agency is extremely professional.

Joe Bogdan is great! Was able to answer all our questions and make the process efficient and painless. His knowledge of our case gave us the confidence that the result would come out in our favor, which it did! Highly recommend him and his team.

By Ron Mejzak on Apr 17, 2022

As a physician facing possible punitive actions from the Illinois Board of Medicine, I was understandably scared. Mr. Bogdan immediately quelled my fears. He was very knowledgeable, personable, and competent. He guided me through the process and was always available. Jay personifies all the qualities a great lawyer should have but few possess: compassion, in depth knowledge, and a personality that puts one's mind at ease. If you find yourself in the unfortunate position of needing an advocate for maintaining your medical licensure, Joseph Bogdan is whom you should seek out. I cannot recommend this lawyer highly enough.

By Kevin Ko on Apr 17, 2022

A gentleman by the name of Patrick served as my counsel for getting a deficiency resolved regarding my nursing license. He was responsive, courteous and timely during my interactions with him. I was able to get my issue resolved in a matter of a few days. He was extremely knowledgeable and even offered advice that didn’t pertain to my case directly. I would highly recommend this firm and would not hesitate to use their services again.

By Terika Thomas on Apr 17, 2022

I would like to thank everyone at this law firm for their hard work. I reached out to them and less than 2 weeks I got my nursing license via email. I can not thank you guys enough!!

By Halyna Miska on Apr 17, 2022

My name Is Halyna, and I am a Registered Nurse who holds a Wisconsin license. I have had trouble transferring my RN license from Wisconsin to Illinois for almost two years. The office IDFPR refused to talk and collaborate with me. The issue they pointed out was not legal. The people who are working there have no clue what they are doing there. They have been rude to me, and eventually, I got tired of waiting. I found the Law Offices of Joseph J. Bogdan in the advertisement. I got a positive result in 4 weeks. I was impressed, and happy with so fast result. I recommend this office to everybody who has issues with IDFPR, great job with a positive result. Thank you!

By Luke Jackson on Apr 17, 2022
