Law Offices of Georgia Goslee Georgia Goslee began her legal career as the first African American lawyer to open a private law practice in Howard County, Maryland in 1983.
In 1982 after two unsuccessful Howard County judgeship appointment attempts, Goslee gained widespread notoriety for her pursuit of a Baltimore City Supreme (Circuit) Court judgeship during a heavily contested election primary against Kenneth Lavon Johnson, Esq.. According to the City Paper of
Baltimore: “ Goslee was seeking to diversify the Baltimore City Supreme (Circuit) Court bench by becoming the first African American female on the Baltimore City Circuit Court bench. Goslee garnered 55,000 votes during the primary election and raised more than $20,000.00 in a well organized campaign “. (City Paper)
Goslee has been widely recognized in the community as an aggressive litigator; a leader in the fight for equality; has enjoyed extensive acclaim as a talk show host on WJZ’s Square Off and Sunday Live programs; and as a former federal prosecutor, and legal
commentator (City Paper)
