About Patricia Ann

Patricia Ann Mancabelli earned her law degree from the State University of New York at Buffalo in 1996, completing a concentration in finance transactions. She arrived at law school after earning a B.A. in English from Canisius College in 1988. Her academic path combined legal training with an orientation toward transactional finance, an area that appears repeatedly in her subsequent career choices.

Her professional life began in private practice shortly after graduation. In 1997 she joined Jackson White PC as a lawyer. That early period established her as a practicing attorney in New York and provided exposure to firm-based transactional work. By 2004 she was listed as a lawyer at Phillips Lytle LLP, a move that placed her in a larger regional firm environment and broadened the scope of matters she handled.

Mancabelli is admitted to practice in New York and is authorized to appear before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. Those admissions reflect a practice that spans state and federal appellate work as well as trial- and transaction-level matters in the region. Over time her experience has combined courtroom and transactional perspectives, drawing on the finance training she received in law school.

As of 2026 she continues to practice law in New York. Her background suggests steady involvement in transactional and finance-related matters through firm positions at Jackson White PC and Phillips Lytle LLP. She works with clients on financing arrangements and related legal issues, and she maintains the licenses required to practice in state and federal courts in the Second Circuit.
