Joann Sharp for Town Justice

Joann Sharp and her husband, Larry, moved "home" to Western NY to be with his father, whose health is not what it once was.

Joann has been a courtroom lawyer for 28 years in Georgia and was recently sworn in by the NY Appellate Division. She has been selected as a Super Lawyer in Super Lawyer Magazine for the last eight years (2017-2024).

Joann attended Emory University for her B.A., Auburn University at Montgomery for her Master's in Liberal Arts, and the University of South Carolina for law school where she was on Law Review, served as the managing editor for the Journal of Law and Education, and competed in Moot Court and Mock Trial.

Joann has tried cases throughout the country in both State and Federal Courts. She has been involved in several high-profile cases and cases of first impression that have been written about in The Los Angeles Times, The National Law Journal, The New York Times Magazine, Correctional Mental Health Report, and the Fulton County Daily Report. She has over a dozen published appellate opinions.

Joann describes herself as a true law geek and loves everything about the law, the courtroom, and the responsibility that goes along with being a lawyer.
