Glen Matthew Lindsay

Employing a "practical litigation" approach, Glen focuses on trying to resolve his client's issue before litigation. However, if those efforts fail, Glen is prepared to go the distance for you, having litigated 1000s of matters to final disposition.

Born in Houston, Texas, Glen M. Lindsay earned his B.S. in Communication Studies and Philosophy from Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois where he was a four-year recipient of the Thomas J.

In 2019, Glen secured an order of dismissal in federal court in a matter of first impression successfully arguing that when attempting to secure a maritime lien on a vessel designated as a "blocked asset" by the Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC"), the party seeking imposition of the maritime lien must obtain licensure from OFAC prior to bringing an admiralty action. Versilia Supply Service SRL et al. v.
