As a professor at the University of Giessen , during the first half of the twentieth century, he was an influential teacher of several generations of legal scholars.

A committed nationalist, he backed national socialism which, in his judgement, opened up opportunities for revanchists who still hoped to find ways to undo the destruction of the Bismarckian German state in 1918/1919. More than six decades after his death, Otto Eger remained a controversial figure due to his engagement with the Nazi régime.
