Who We Are
Jon M. Egan has been practicing law in Oregon since the year 2000, and his family has a long history in the law. The name “Egan” is one of the oldest in Europe, originating in the 10th century. It comes from the Irish “Aedhagan,” which means “the little bright-eyed one.” The Clan headquarters, Egan Castle (also known as “Redwood Castle”) was built in the year 1210 on the River Shannon in Ireland. The Egans have been the leading family of hereditary “Brehons” (Lawyers and Judges) and “Ollaves” (Professors) in Ireland since that time, and they ran a celebrated university as well as Ireland’s premier law school at Redwood Castle for hundreds of years. Even today, the Chief of the Egan Clan, who owns and resides with his family in Redwood Castle, is attorney Michael J. Egan. It is Jon’s purpose in life to honor the family’s rich tradition.
Every day, we see powerful people abuse their power. Insurance companies offer only pennies on the dollar to the injured, employers refuse to pay overtime to their workers, and unscrupulous merchants prey on their unsuspecting customers. They can take advantage of you like this because so many people can’t or don’t know how to fight them.
We fight for you and people like you! We pursue monetary verdicts and settlements for our clients for two reasons. One is to try to compensate them for the hardship they have experienced. But each lawsuit also benefits the future victims of those who ignore laws, morality and common decency in pursuit of the bottom line. Making them pay money when they break the rules is the only way to hold them accountable. Corporations don’t do the right thing because it is right. They do it because we make it too expensive for them to do the wrong thing.
The Egan Legal Team represents only those who have been injured or wronged. We never work for corporations, employers or insurance companies. They may be able to buy scientific experts, advertising, and political influence, but they can’t buy us. The law is not only our job, it is our calling. Goodness, Decency and Justice are not just words. They are what allow all of us to live together as a society, and they are pleasing in God’s sight. May we all seek the light of Truth, the peace of Justice, and the strength of the Righteous.
