About Lindsey

My parents went through a harsh divorce, and I grew up watching all of it. This experience is one of the many reasons I was compelled to study sociology and psychology in college before achieving my Juris Doctorate.

In my life today, I have created a loving marriage with children, family unity, and all the adventuring I can handle.  We hike, backpack, swim, play with our golden doodle, and travel. My husband and I have a son of our own, and I am a stepmom to a lovely daughter from my husband’s previous marriage. We welcome a healthy relationship with her mother and even spend holidays together as a blended family.

I infuse that same sense of togetherness into my law practice. Even if it’s time for a change, that doesn’t mean everyone must suffer through meaningless pain. Whether you’re already in the divorce process, or just coming to a tough decision, I can help you.

Excellent Lawyer

Posted by

I hired Lindsay to transfer a custody order I had pertaining to my son from California to NC. She walked me through the process and was always quick to respond to any inquiries I had or status updates. I highly recommend Lindsey to handle your case as you will find a very knowledgeable, caring attorney who will get the job done right and let you know where you stand throughout the whole process. Thank you Lindsey!!! Respectfully, Chris C.

The Right Attorney for Me

Lindsey was the right fit for me. We wanted an amicable divorce, but most importantly I wanted to be sure that I knew what all of my options were. Lindsey was professional, dependable, and thoughtful. I came out the other end confident in knowing that I had made well informed decisions for my family.
