Who is behind Law Mom

Jessica Pinciaro is an Estate Planning Associate Attorney at Law Mom®. With a total of five years of experience in the legal world, Jessica brings a background in the estate and probate field, and in multiple other areas of law. Born and raised in the South Shore, Jessica is passionate about educating individuals in her home state of Massachusetts on the commonly overlooked benefits of estate planning, and takes great pride in helping clients navigate through what can be an extremely daunting and time-consuming process. She is committed to helping clients save as much money and time as possible, while hopefully assisting them in figuring out what they want their legacies to be along the way.

Jessica currently lives in Brookline, and when not practicing law enjoys spending time with her family, traveling, and reading.

Jessie Manchester is an Associate Attorney at Law Mom®, where she combines her legal expertise with a deep sense of empathy and commitment to client care. A Vermont native, Jessie was inspired by her father, a litigator who ran his own firm, to pursue a career in law. She earned her undergraduate degree from Brown University in Providence and received her JD from Northwestern University School of Law in Chicago before beginning her legal career in litigation at large firms in both Seattle and Boston.

After taking time away from practicing to raise her three children, Jessie felt a pull back to the legal world—but in a way that focuses more on counseling people rather than on disputes. She has found her calling in estate planning, a field where she can help families prepare for the future with confidence and clarity.

Outside of the office, Jessie lives with her husband and three kids—two teenagers and one tween. As a family, they love skiing in the winter and boating in the summer. Jessie is also an avid writer, and when she’s not drafting trusts, you just might find her working on her next novel.
