About Jordan A
Jordan A. Stern earned his Juris Doctor from Rutgers School of Law–Newark in 2004 after beginning law school in 2001. He left law school with a practical sense of how courts, clients and counsel interact. The classroom and the clinic provided the foundation for a career spent largely in New Jersey.
He began his legal career at Pepper Hamilton in 2004. The role placed him in a traditional firm setting early on, doing work typical of associates at mid-size and large firms. Two years later he joined Greenbaum, Rowe, Smith & Davis LLP. That stint added to his experience in private practice and exposed him to a broader docket and client base.
Through those early years Stern worked on matters that took him into state courthouses and the federal courthouse in Newark. He is admitted to practice in New Jersey and before the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey. Those admissions have framed the professional choices he has made since leaving large firm life.
Stern eventually opened his own practice, forming the Law Office of Jordan A. Stern LLC. The move shifted his day-to-day responsibilities. He took on a mix of client counseling, case management and courtroom work. Running a small firm also meant handling administrative and business decisions that are invisible at bigger shops.
Colleagues describe him as straightforward in exchanges and attentive to procedural detail. He approaches filings, negotiations and court appearances with an eye toward clear presentation and steady preparation. He has handled matters at different stages: initial intake, motion practice and hearings. He also frequently advises clients on procedural questions specific to New Jersey practice and to federal filings in the District of New Jersey.
Stern’s career path—law school to national firm, then to a New Jersey regional firm and finally to his own office—reflects a steady orientation toward practice in state and federal courts. He maintains an active license and continues to represent clients in both venues. His current practice at the Law Office of Jordan A. Stern LLC centers on legal matters brought in New Jersey state courts and in the U.S. District Court for New Jersey.
