Biography

Justin attended Portland schools through high school, graduating from Cheverus in 1989. He then graduated from the University of Vermont in 1993 and the University of Georgia School of Law, magna cum laude, in 1999.

Justin served as Clerk for the Honorable Leigh I. Saufley of the Maine Judicial Court as his first job after law school. After working briefly at a general practice firm in Portland, he moved in 2001 to a smaller firm which limited its practice to estate planning and related matters. Since then Justin’s professional practice has focused exclusively on estate planning, the administration of estates and trusts, and mediation.

Justin is a Fellow of the American College of Trusts & Estates Counsel (ACTEC), serves as Vice Chair of the Maine Probate and Trust Law Advisory Commission, and is a former President of the Trusts and Estates Section of the Maine State Bar Association. In 2019, Best Lawyers named Justin as Portland, Maine’s Trusts and Estates “Lawyer of the Year.” Justin resides in South Portland, happily serving as a “home base” for his sons, Andrew, a PhD student in Organic Chemistry at Emory University in Atlanta, and Theo, a circus student studying cigar box juggling and acrobatics at École de Cirque de Québec.
