Prior to being an attorney with The Manely Firm, P.C., Jess worked for the firm as a Client Care Coordinator to perform intake for new clients. As a Client Care Coordinator, Jess learned the intricate details that make every family, and every family law case, unique and vital to finding a resolution. Jess then transitioned from the role of Client Care Coordinator into the position of a Law Clerk. As a Law Clerk, Jess researched novel legal issues while assisting in the drafting of briefs and other legal documents to be filed with many Georgia Courts. The Manely Firm, P.C. has fully shaped Jess Lill into the family law attorney she is today, by providing her the opportunity to experience cases from initial intake, development, to finally their positive resolution.
Attorney Jess Lill seeks to help resolve her clients' family law problems fairly, compassionately, and quickly. In her spare time, Jess prefers reading, yoga, and exploring historic Savannah. Jess also volunteers regularly as a hospital advocate for Coastal Empire's Rape Crisis Center and Chapter Advisor for her sorority Sigma Sigma Sigma's local chapter.
