Posted by Jill | December 10, 2025 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Hands down, the best lawyer to hire.

After having a horrific experience with a negligent lawyer, I cannot say enough about Lindsey. During a life altering emotional event such as custody, you need someone on your side who is level headed and will take out the emotion. My only regret was not hiring her from the get-go. She is unbelievabl...y skilled, creative with solutions, transparent about outcomes, provides a professional opinion but still keeping your wants in mind, is an advocate, updates you at every step, is mindful of finances, and has a demeanor that is calm and trusting. Her paralegal Melanie is also incredible. Not a step was missed, and they knew every detail. Lindsey is hands down the best and most collaborative attorney who truly wants good outcomes.

Best Lawyer Ever!

After having endured some pretty negative experiences with other lawyers, I found Lindsey. Her professionalism, genuine concern, and integrity made ALL the difference in the world for me. Her legal expertise and wise discernment literally was the difference of life and death for me and my child. Lind...sey went above and beyond to ensure a successful outcome to our suit. I will forever be appreciative to Lindsey for her diligence in serving us. It is not an understatement to say that we couldn't have done it without her. I would recommend Lindsey to everyone I know! Thank you, Lindsey!!!
