Kathleen O'Hagan Scallan

Exceptional guidance through a complex estate settlement

When my family was faced with the daunting task of settling my late father's estate, which included a family business and properties in two states, we were fortunate to engage Kathleen O'Hagan Scallan at Loeb & Loeb. From our initial consultation in their Chicago office, it was clear we were in expert hands. Kathleen’s deep knowledge of trusts and estates law was immediately evident, but what truly set her apart was her ability to translate complex legal concepts into clear, actionable steps for our family. Her background, including her recognition in this specific field, gave us immense confidence. Over several months, she navigated intricate tax implications and potential family disputes with a steady, strategic approach that was both professional and deeply personal. She anticipated challenges we hadn't even considered and crafted solutions that preserved family harmony. The process concluded not only successfully but far more efficiently than we had dared hope. Kathleen’s six years of focused experience, combined with her clear communication and genuine empathy, made an incredibly stressful situation manageable. She is a tremendous asset to Loeb & Loeb and an attorney I would recommend without reservation to anyone needing sophisticated yet compassionate legal counsel.
