About Jeremiah
Jeremiah Runkle began his academic path in business. He earned a B.S. in Business Administration from Messiah College in 2003. He went on to study law at Widener University, receiving his J.D. in 2008. Those degrees placed him on a steady course into Pennsylvania legal work.
His early career mixed public service and private practice. In 2009 he joined the Snyder County District Attorney’s Office as an assistant district lawyer. That role gave him courtroom experience and exposure to the routines of local prosecution. In the same year he also began practicing under the name AxRunkle, P.C., establishing a base for his private work while remaining active in the community.
Runkle’s involvement beyond the courtroom is a notable part of his professional life. He has been a member of the Pennsylvania Bar Association since 2008. Since 2012 he has served on the board of the Greater Susquehanna Valley Chamber of Commerce. He also holds a leadership post in his local bar community as vice president of the Union/Snyder County Bar Association, a role he has held since 2012. These positions reflect steady engagement with both legal peers and regional business leaders.
Colleagues describe Runkle as methodical and practical in his approach to matters. His background in business administration informs how he manages client matters and interactions with local institutions. The mix of prosecutorial experience and private practice has given him a working sense of how cases move through county courts and how administrative and civil matters intersect with criminal dockets.
Over the years he has continued to balance courtroom appearances with community involvement. His work at AxRunkle, P.C. has allowed him to maintain ties to the Snyder County legal community while handling matters that arise across Pennsylvania. He remains an active member of professional organizations and participates in chamber and bar activities aimed at local development and legal education.
He practices law in Pennsylvania and continues to operate from AxRunkle, P.C., serving clients in state courts and handling a range of matters that arise in the local legal landscape. His current practice focuses on representing clients in Pennsylvania courts.
