also known as Julie E. Goodwin
I provide clients with personal and individualized legal service and advice in the areas of estate planning and administration, estate litigation, nonprofit and tax-exempt organization law, and business planning.
Specifically, I advise individuals with regard to their personal and business succession and tax planning, providing documents such as wills, trusts, powers of attorney and advance directives, and business-based documents such as charters, bylaws, employment agreements, buy-sell agreements, partnership agreements, etc.
In addition, I assist clients in setting up tax-exempt organizations and non-profits, and help organizations obtain tax-exempt status with the IRS. I also advise existing tax-exempt organizations on best-practices and compliance with federal and local laws.
With regard to estate administration and litigation, I represent fiduciaries in navigating the probate system and post-mortem estate planning, as well as preparing any necessary estate tax returns. I also represent individual beneficiaries of estates who may need separate counsel.
Specialties: Estate planning and administration; trust administration; tax-exempt organizations (corporate documents and tax work); business planning; estate litigation; taxation.
I am a part-time Eastern Shore resident and have an office on Chincoteague Island, Virginia, as well as in Maryland.
Outside of work, I enjoy running, biking, swimming, skiing, playing music in a local community band, reading, and playing with my dog and kids.
Free consultations are limited to discussion of fees and general procedures only. Legal advice is given upon engagement and payment of my hourly rate.

"I endorse this lawyer. Ms. Goodwin Weber is an attorney I would trust to do my estate planning. She is thorough, keeps abreast of the law, and leaves no stone unturned. Not only is her legal work first class, her interactions with clients and others is excellent. Clients can be assured that she will listen effectively for as long as it takes for her to grasp the issues and facts, and that she will be responsive to their needs. Fellow members of the bar can similarly expect Ms Goodwin Weber to be generous with her time, providing guidance to those less experienced and sharing her knowledge with others."

"From my experience working on several matters with Mrs. Weber, I have found her to be an ethical, detail-orientated, knowledgeable advocate. She is accessible, client-focused, and hard working. From the outset of our firm's engagement of her as outside counsel on an estate matter, she identified the key issues and was willing to tackle challenging matters, including ethical issues, without reservation and while adhering to exemplary standards. She has consistently proved to be competent and professional. She's also straight-up and easy to work with, which always helps. For these reasons, I endorse Mrs. Weber."
