Jared Childers and Susan Barlup have been wonderful to work with, they are extremely helpful and always available.  I would highly recommend their services when looking for elder law professionals.

When my Mother suffered a stroke in 2012 that required nursing home care I contacted R. Thomas Murphy regarding options to provide for her care. I meet with Jared and Barb S. and am very pleased with the advice given and the plan that is continuing to provide for Mom’s care. During the past six years I’ve dealt mainly with Barb S. but have on occasion dealt with both the Chambersburg and Waynesboro offices and have always received prompt, professional service from the staff. I highly recommend this firm for those seeking advice regarding Elder Care or Estate Planning.

My sister and I have had a great experience working with this firm in administering our fathers estate.  Jared Childers walked us through the process and Barb Henicle has been particularly helpful in handling all of the administrative paperwork required. She has been terrific! I highly recommend this firm.

Very professional services.  Every staff member I dealt with was helpful, courteous, well organized and responsive. Special Thanks to Barbara Henicle, who was my case officer.  Mr. Murphy engaged in the process when required.  I would go to no other firm for future needs.

Where do I begin…..When my brother passed suddenly in June 2015,  the journey through navigating as executrix couldn’t have been done without the help of Jarod and Barb – Angels that helped us walk through a difficult time. Always responsive, and guiding us through some bumpy times with family, making sure that everything was done by the book, and really standing as my champion in the face of family pressure… They stood behind me 110% and for that I am so grateful. I would give this firm 10 stars if I could!!!! Thank you Jarod and Barb!!!  These two make an unstoppable team!!!

Jared Childers was very professional and supportive at a difficult time for our family. He and his staff helped us with wills and POA documents that made it much easier for the family. Susan and Tracy continue to be super helpful whenever we need help during our sister’s care in the nursing home. We have recommended this firm to friends and neighbors many times!
