Julie E Nugent

I am currently an associate attorney with Weiss & Paarz, P.C. Prior to joining the firm, I served as judicial law clerk to the Honorable Nelson C. Johnson, J.S.C. in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Atlantic County, Law Division. 

I graduated from Boston University School of Management with a B.S. in business administration, business law, and finance in May 2010. Thereafter, I attended Widener University School of Law on a full academic merit scholarship. While in law school, I served as the Bluebook Editor of The Widener Law Review and participated in Widener’s Intensive Trial Advocacy Program. I also participated in Widener’s Environmental & Natural Resources Law Clinic, advocating on behalf of not-for-profit organizations and individuals seeking to protect the local environment. In May 2013, I received my Juris Doctor, with Honors, and a Certificate in Environmental Law. I also received the GreenWatch Institute Scholarship Award in Memory of Jerry Shields, which is awarded annually to a student based on the student’s outstanding performance in the law school’s clinic and a commitment to public interest advocacy.

I am a member of the Atlantic County Bar Association, the New Jersey Association for Justice, and the Vincent S. Haneman American Inn of Court. I am also the current Chairperson-Elect of the Atlantic County Bar Association Young Lawyer's Division for the 2014-2015 term.
