Lindsey Eastwood assisted my family with our estate, and provided adequate information that our family needed. Lindsey Eastwood was very professional, and I will recommend her law services to anyone in the near future.
My first thought that comes to mind as I write this review is that there should be a special category, or more stars, for special people, like Lindsey. Lindsey defines professionalism. Her advice is always solid and has a wealth of knowledge. I have had experience with other lawyers who never respond to clients. Not only does Lindsey respond, she does so right away, eliminating a lot of frustrations that client's experience because of lack of attention. I was referred to Lindsey by another lawyer. I had exhausted my resources when I was trying to get help in handling a complex probate litigation case. So many attorneys would not even take the time to review it before flat out turning me down. Lindsey saw the possibilities and was eager to help. I am also so impressed with her open disclosure of her fees charged on her website, true transparency!! I have never seen this from any other attorney. I know the motto for lawyers is "lawyers render service". Lindsey goes above and beyond in rendering her services. I highly recommend Lindsey!

"Lindsey Meadows is an aggressive, smart young lawyer who is well thought of amongst her peers and members of the Birmingham Bar. I know judges in Jefferson County frequently call upon her to represent indigent clients in personal injury, probate, and criminal cases because of their confidence in her abilities.
Lindsey is a very good communicator, and she works well with other lawyers. I would recommend Lindsey in both civil and criminal cases."

"Lindsey Meadows is an exceptional attorney. I had the pleasure of working with Ms. Meadows on a divorce case as co-counsel. She displayed the utmost professionalism in the courtroom, with opposing counsel, and with our client. Ms. Meadows empathized with our client while steering the case in the right direction. I would not have chosen any other attorney to assist me. Ms. Meadows has extensive experience in multiple practice areas. If you are looking for a strong advocate, Lindsey Meadows should be your first call!"
