My Divorce

When I was served with divorce papers I did not know where to turn . I had never been through anything like this . I called a few lawyers but didn’t feel comfortable. I used a lawyer matching service and found Jeff . I went for a meeting and left with a lawyer. It was the best decision I made . Jef...f is very good at what he does . He keep me informed through the whole process and was there whenever I needed him .His knowledge and desire to fight for me we evident . When I wavered about anything he was right there to support me. In the end the divorce settlement was better than I could have imagined . I would recommend Jeff to anyone needing a lawyer. I know if I end up needing one again he’ll be my first call

Attorney Eger is the Best!!

Attorney Eger is the best! He saved my kids from my abusive husband and got the me the best result in my divorce! He is very kind and really listened to my story. He told me the solutions and I made my choices. Attorney Eger did not promise anything he could not deliver, and I actually did bette...r at court than we had planned. I would highly recommend Attorney Eger because he is the Best!

The lawyer you want to have . Buy your side.

I had a very complex case. I wasn't on the Birth Certificate as the father. Even though I Saw my daughter often. When I was in Rhode Island But I lived in Indiana. The mother would not let my child come see me in Indiana. I had major problems. And 6 years of back child support. Jeffrey got my back ch...ild support knocked off . I can now see my daughter. For the whole summer. I get to see my daughter for alternate holidays. Which I never got to see her. Basically, I got my rights. Which is a beautiful thing. Thank you, Jeffrey eager. You're one hell of a lawyer.

High-quality legal services with empathy, efficiency and extensive expertise.

I’m writing this review for the person out there in search of a lawyer they can trust to provide high-quality legal services while keeping their priorities at the heart of litigation. I sought out Jeffrey Eger when I was entering a new chapter of my life requiring the relocation of my children. Jeff ...took the time to gather the history of the case and truly listened to my priorities. My ex-husband and I have worked hard to establish a positive co-parenting relationship, always putting the best interest of our children first. Although I felt confident that relocation was in their best interest, I worried about the logistics. Jeff was able to calm my fears and work with both of us to maintain our positive relationship while moving forward with the relocation. He did this through active listening, promptly responding to messages, providing examples of scenarios, and sharing his expert legal advice. Jeff’s extensive experience showed through his efficient, intelligent, caring responses. We have since moved and the adjustment has been amazing. As I watch my daughters’ eyes sparkle in their new environment, I can’t help but think of my gratitude for Jeff and all he has done for our family.
