Lindsay became a lawyer to help people. Growing up in a rural Wisconsin town, she didn’t know any lawyers—but she has always felt the drive to fight for the “little guy” against a system designed to take advantage of those without resources.

In so many cases, just a little common sense and a voice of reason can calm the tides before they escalate, which leads to a more efficient resolution.
