Olivia G. Goodwin

Olivia G. Goodwin is an associate at Dinsmore & Shohl in Wheeling who concentrates her practice on workers’ compensation matters. She advocates for employers and helps them respond strategically to complex claims and disputes. Her work is centered on understanding the facts of each claim, communicating available options, and helping clients make informed decisions as workers’ compensation issues develop through the administrative and legal process.

Goodwin earned her J.D. from the University of Dayton School of Law in 2024. She received a B.A. from Bethany College in 2021, graduating summa cum laude with majors in Political Science and Psychology. Her undergraduate honors included the Oreon E. Scott Award as valedictorian, the John G. Chernenko Political Science Award, and recognition as a Kalon Scholar. That academic background supports her organized, detail-focused approach to client matters.

Before joining Dinsmore, Goodwin gained experience at an elder law firm that focused on estate planning and asset protection. That work exposed her to long-term planning and protection strategies before she moved into an employer-focused workers’ compensation practice. She now applies that client-service foundation to claim analysis and dispute response, helping employers understand the procedural and practical considerations that can affect how a workers’ compensation matter is managed.

Olivia G. Goodwin is admitted to practice in Ohio and is a member of the Ohio State Bar Association. Her current practice reflects a focused role representing employers in workers’ compensation matters from the Wheeling office. By combining recent legal training, prior planning-oriented experience, and close attention to claim details, she helps clients evaluate options and build a measured response to workplace injury claims and related disputes.
