Why Our Clients Trust Us

{My siblings and I made a wise choice in selecting R. Thomas Murphy's law firm to represent us in the handling of our mother's estate. After our first two meetings, we realized we were in very capable hands, those of Attorney Jared Childers and his estate assistant, Amanda Langland. Our initial questions were thoroughly answered, and helpful suggestions were made. Most of the remainder of our meetings were conducted by Amanda.  She was very knowledgeable, professional, and sensitive to the recent loss of our Mother. Amanda was punctual, organized, and informative. Meetings were planned to accommodate our schedules, and our phone calls were returned in a timely manner. We always felt Amanda had our best interest at heart.

{They are wonderful! Jared Childers and Barb Stefanic have taken care of my parents', my husband's and my retirement, wills, and estate planning for years. They are both efficient and caring. Tammy has been a great help also. I can recommend them without reservation!

{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!

{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.
