About Robert J. Bogdanowicz

After earning his J.D. from SMU Dedman School of Law in 2005, Robert J. Bogdanowicz III began a steady climb through Texas law firms. He moved into practice work quickly and spent his early years building practical courtroom and case-management experience.

His career began in associate roles. In 2008 he worked at The Peavler Group, P.C., followed by a 2009 associate position at Thompson, Coe, Cousins & Irons, LLP. He joined Lewis Brisbois, Bisgaard & Smith, LLP as an associate in 2011. The move to partner came in 2012, when he became a partner at Deans & Lyons, LLP. He later joined Calhoun, Bhella & Sechrest, LLP as a partner in 2017. In 2021 he took a partner role at Burke Bogdanowicz PLLC, where he continues to practice.

Those transitions trace a pattern of expanding responsibility. Early associate positions exposed him to day-to-day litigation tasks and client work. Partnership roles required oversight of case strategy, client relations, and mentoring junior lawyers. The sequence of firms and positions suggests familiarity with firm-side operations and the pressures of managing matters from intake to disposition.

People who have worked with him describe a lawyer who prefers clear, direct work. He has navigated both large-firm and smaller-firm environments. That range means he has seen varied case dockets, billing structures, and client expectations. Rather than focusing on a single headline achievement, his résumé shows steady movement into leadership positions at multiple Texas practices.

His office is at Burke Bogdanowicz PLLC. There he practices from the firm’s Texas location and handles matters arising in the state. He focuses on litigation in Texas.
