Excellent all around

We worked with Attorney Eagan's office for our real estate sale and purchase this year and had an excellent experience. Their communication, attentiveness and attention to detail are top notch. Couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Highly Recommended Closing Attorney

Atty Owen Eagan, his wife Judy and their team were very responsive & personable. We highly recommend them & are very pleased with the handling of our real estate closing. The entire process was handled professionally & efficiently. They were able to explain things in an understandable way and tre...ated us like great friends. Will be using them to get our will in place as well.

5 Stars for Owen + His Staff

My husband and I have purchased 2 homes with Owen's help - our first home in 2020 during peak COVID-19 and we just closed on our new home in May. Owen is incredibly thorough, helpful, compassionate, and knowledgable. We trust him implicitly. We can't recommend Owen (and Judy!) enough.

Great experience- would recommend

Went to Eagan and Donohue for estate planning from a referral. So glad I did. Owen was thorough and responsive and really took the time to make sure I understood everything. Made me feel like I was his only client. Would definitely recommend!

Customer service

I love Attorney Owen Eagen, I had a great experience. Unfortunately not so much with the staff. I had mistakenly lost a check that the office had given me during a closing. The check was part of the closing. On May 25th I went directly to the office and the front desk lady came to the screen and ma...de me feel line a second class citizen. Than told me to walk to the side of the door while she open the door to talk with me. I understand covid and I work in a public place but again felt like a second class citizen. I understand everyone is careful. All I wanted was prompt service. If I had a closing I might have been treated better, I sent several emails and only one was returned. Not very nice. I work in banking and as a Branch Manager my customer whether right or wrong we always do our best to treat them with world class service. I am very disappointed, As much as I felt Attorney Eagen is professional and did a nice job on my closing. I feel his staff could have treated me a bit nicer.

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
