Jamie Morgan

Firm: Fendrick Morgan
1950 Route 70 East, Suite 200 , Cherry Hill , New Jersey 08003
Practice Areas: Estate Planning, Elder Law, Probate
My focus professionally has always been, and continues to be, in the areas of estate planning, estate administration and elder law.  After graduating from Rutgers University School of Law in 2001, I clerked for the Honorable James D. Ciancia in the Appellate Division of the New Jersey Superior Court.  After my clerkship, I joined the law firm Fox Rothschild, in their Philadelphia office, in their Tax and Estates Department.  I also then began the pursuit of my LL.M. degree in Taxation from New York University, which I completed in 2004.. In 2007, I left Fox Rothschild to join my current law partner, Douglas Fendrick, in Voorhees, New Jersey.  Our firm, Fendrick Morgan, practices exclusively in the areas of estate planning, estate administration and elder law.. Personally, I reside in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, with my husband and our two young children.

Jesse Hynes

Firm: Hynes Law Group
2 South Avenue East , Cranford , New Jersey 07016
Practice Areas: Estate Planning
I concentrate my practice in Elder Law, which encompasses, but is not limited to, Estate and Trust Planning, Estate Administration, Asset Preservation and Protection, Disability and Special Needs Planning, Guardianship, and Medicaid.. Born and raised in Cranford, New Jersey, I earned my Undergraduate Honors Degree in Psychology at Seton Hall University and my Law Degree from Wake Forest University School of Law. At Wake Forest University School of Law, I was selected to partake in the Elder Law Clinic, which provides free legal services to low-income residents of Forsyth County, North Carolina. During my time in the Elder Law Clinic, I made it a priority to assist disenfranchised voters to obtain ID cards so that they could vote. At the Elder Law Clinic, I gained invaluable experience with the substantive laws affecting the elderly, including Guardianship and Medicaid.. Before and while attending law school, I worked in the elder care field for approximately seven years, holding various jobs at an Assisted Living Facility. I gained invaluable experience while working at the Assisted Living Facility, having been immersed in the day-to-day life of elders and their common problems and concerns. It was this experience that led me to devote his life to Elder Law.. I am a member of the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys and the Elder and Disability Law Section of the New Jersey State Bar Association.
