Jessica Murray Lastarza

With over 20 years of legal experience, I have committed my career to assisting individuals and families in navigating the complexities of divorce and family law with both compassion and efficiency. I am the founder of We Mediate, LLC, where I concentrate on non-adversarial, out-of-court resolutions that focus on the well-being of all involved parties. My methodology is built on the four E's: Education: I aim to empower my clients by providing them with knowledge about their rights and options. Empowerment: I encourage clients to actively participate in creating personalized solutions. Empathy: I strive to offer a supportive environment during emotionally challenging times. Efficiency: I focus on streamlining processes to minimize both time and costs. I am certified in divorce mediation by the Connecticut Council for Non-Adversarial Divorce and have received collaborative practice training from the Collaborative Practice Training Institute. My professional background spans family law litigation, estate planning, and business matters, which enables me to provide well-rounded guidance tailored to each client’s specific needs. Outside of my professional life, I am a proud mother of three, an enthusiastic youth lacrosse coach, and an active member of my local community. These roles enhance my perspective and strengthen my dedication to assisting families in managing transitions with dignity and respect.
