Jeff Orchinik was not only the attorney that our family called upon when he was needed but he was a good friend to our family who shared in tears with us and many laughs with us. His heart was big and he knew how to tell us like it was. We will always have a place in heart for Jeff. Our hearts and prayers are with the entire Orchinik family. Love always, Eliezer and Luz Estrada, Lucinda Estrada Lopez, and El Estrada Jr.

As a defense attorney, I was technically an "adversary" of Jeff's. I have to say I was shocked and saddened to hear of his passing, although we are on opposite sides of the fence professionally and have had only a handful of cases together.

Jeff was such a professional, pleasant, dedicated attorney and if this was obvious to me, it was surely obvious to his clients. In my professional world it is rare to have a friendly adversary and Jeff was that. For anyone who did business with him I can tell you he was an honest and true advocate -- and for his family, my sincerest condolences.

I'm so sad and sick to hear about Jeff's passing, He was my accident lawyer and he was so kind, compassionate, and caring about me and my situation. I didn't know Jeff long but he lived his faith by how he worked with me. He was a great man. I am praying for the family.

I knew Jeff from the Mt. Airy and Central H S days and last saw him a few years ago. What a kind and thoughtful person. A very humble human being who was admired by many. Wishing my best thoughts to his family.

I knew Jeff for 65 years. We met at 3 years old as neighbors on Rugby Street and stayed friends until his untimely death. He was a wonderful person and leaves a tragic void in his family and legal community. I spoke to his amazing 100 year old father, Dr. Carlton Orchinik and we both expressed how devastated we are by his passing. Rest In Peace, Jeff. You will be missed.

I knew Jeff since our first law job immediately after law school. I last spoke with him a couple of weeks ago, and we joked about his father, who is 100 years old. Jeff was smart, very smart, kind, loyal, an excellent lawyer and a good friend for many years. Jeff was also very humble. Jeff loved his family, especially his young grandchildren.

My sincere condolences go out to Jeff's family. It is a great loss. He was a wonderful guy.
