Profile

Jonathan Eager

Partner, chartered legal executive

A partner and experienced chartered legal executive, I have worked in the family law team at Willans for over a decade.

I help my clients with all areas of family law that may be encountered when either a relationship with another person starts, or through the maze and haze following the breakdown of an existing relationship.

I am recommended by national legal guides, The Legal 500 and Chambers UK.
