Best lawyer

Spent tons of money with 2 prior lawyers, but Jeff in days had results on my case in family court that others couldn’t achieve in 3 years. He is the best lawyer I’ve had the pleasure of hiring, also gives the best advise as to how to compose yourself for your case, and personally you thoughout life. ...Jeff is down to business, matter a fact, no crap attorney, but gets you the best results while not giving you false hopes and the facts. Would recommend Jeff for any level of legal issues.

This man is about his clients, not the paycheck

Mr. Eger was an amazing lawyer. He is not a yes man, he doesnt tell you what you want to hear but what you need to hear. He gets straight to the point with no bs to confuse the issues. I went through a nearly year long custody issue with my ex and her terrible excuse of lawyer. From the beginning he ...was professional and honest. He refused to allow the other attorney walk all over me, despite the others attempts to bleed me dry of money in order to win the case. He always put the needs of the client first, saving me time, money, and my ability to spend time with my children. Even after the case was settled, he still checks to make sure things are going well and that the orders are being followed. Would definitely recommend him to anyone and can't wait to put another retainer on him for the inevitable future.

you want him in your corner!

Any time you need legal guidance the level of stress and emotional toll are going to run high. I hold Jeff in high regard and truly appreciate how he helped me with my family court case. I can’t say he always told me what I wanted to hear , but what I can say is that he was reasonably priced, profess...ional, and extremely attentive and honest throughout the process. In the end , with his help I ended up getting results in a matter of weeks that I had Previously worked years to achieve without stepping foot into a court room. I would definitely recommend you reach out to him if you are in need of any legal help and he will give you his experienced opinion without sugar coating anything.

100% recommend

I don’t have the words to describe attorney Jeff Eger. He is a very kind hearted man who takes no BS. Jeff is affordable and will work with you financially. Trust is a understatement, going through a custody case is horrible to deal with and although I didn’t quite see it at first, he undeniably me...ant it when he gave me his word. I quickly learned not only did he have my daughters best interest at heart but also mine. He helped me turn my life around, would check in on me even on the weekends or late hours. I highly recommend Mr. Eger for all of your legal needs as not only will you get everything he promised and more but a friend as well.

Skilled, honest, and enthusiastic lawyer! Diligent in fighting for his clients. Highly recommended!

I want to thank this man so much for helping my best friend and goddaughter. He was informative, patient, and kind. He would answer questions at any hour. Offered guidance, advice, and tough love when needed. Custody battles are emotional and difficult for everyone involved. He quickly developed a st...rategy for the situation and utilized everything necessary to acquire the best outcome. Can I just mention too how funny this man is and how much it helps when you’re going through something you cannot find humor in. I cannot imagine my friend finding anyone better suited for helping her. He is a gem and I am eternally grateful and recommend him. Thank you Jeff.
