A True Professional

I used Egan Law Offices for my divorce many years ago. This was a difficult time in my life and Judy provided the experience I needed to reach a settlement that provided for my son and I. Recently I retained her services again to resolve long standing arrears due to me. Judy, once again, helped me... resolve this matter even with many obstacles in the way. She is a true professional, dedicated to her clients and the only attorney I would recommend to anyone faces these same challenges.

A calming hand during a tumultuous time

I was referred to Mrs Egan through a childhood friend. I could not thank him enough. The Egan Law Firm became an extended family during a very difficult time. My marriage was over, my children and I thrust into emotional upheaval leading to economic uncertainty and custody concerns. Throughout ...the lengthy process, Judy was there. She provided more than consultation but compassion and understanding as my situation was difficult. She asked me what my goals were and she achieved everyone. She understood my constraints and worked within them to be the force my family needed so that we could begin our new life. Judy fought for me, she stood up for me and my children and when the ambulance chasing opposing counsel went low, Judy fought harder. The Egan Law Firm, Judy and her staff were amazing. They enabled me to remain confident, secured my financial picture and kept my children where they belong and on the right schedule. They understand the difficulties of divorce and trauma that ensues. I am grateful for the referral and I hope you will be too. BTW: The Egan Law Firm is also establishing my family trust as I move into the next chapter of life. Their integrity and commitment to their clients is commendable.

Egan Law equals Great Attorneys

Judy Egan and Egan Law Offices have attorneys that I would highly recommend. I worked with Attorney Judy Egan. In my experience, Judy took the time to review my case, listen to all of my questions, and help me to understand what we could and could not ask for in court. Judy did an excellent job ...representing my interests and helped me achieve every outcome I was seeking. Throughout the entire process she quickly responded to all of my emails, phone calls, and setup meetings to make sure I understood every step of the process. Judy is an extremely thorough attorney and I am so pleased and honored to have had her represent me.

Exceptional Lawyer

Attorney Egan is an extremely knowledgeable, well informed and compassionate attorney. I would recommend Attorney Egan to anyone looking to obtain a divorce and/or who is in need of representation. She walked me through the process of my divorce with patience, knowledge and understanding. I was ...in a marriage of over 25 years with 3 children. Ms. Egan understood that this was a very difficult time for my family. She was prompt in answering all of my questions and all emails/phone calls. Her entire staff was pleasant, helpful and very professional. I am extremely pleased with the outcome of my divorce settlement and have Attorney Egan to thank.

Smart, Experienced and a Good Problem Solver

Judy is smart and experienced with a direct and straight forward style that kept me calm during a very emotional process. She is patient and always took the time to explain the complexities of the divorce process and the law. Judy listened to me, and understood this was my divorce--that what was the... usual one size fits all solution would not work for me and my children. And because she listened- and is smart and very experienced--she crafted a settlement offer that was clever and creative and that gave me what I most wanted, while protecting all my interests. I was very well represented by Judy Egan and I am very happy with the result.
