From a young age, Lindsay found herself drawn to the practice of law and, specifically, the courtroom. As she watched her grandfather serve as a highly regarded judge in the small town of Taylorville, Illinois, Lindsay grew most interested in those cases involving personal injuries.

Education

Lindsay’s involvement with legal debate organizations started early and continued through her secondary education at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Subsequently, Lindsay’s passion for the law, coupled with her work ethic, helped her achieve her dream of graduating from St. Louis University School of Law.

Her training did not stop with obtaining her law degree. In 2016, Lindsay graduated from the Gerry Spence Trial Lawyers College, which required unmeasurable hard work and countless hours to achieve.

Work Experience

Due to her extensive trial advocacy training throughout her law school career, Lindsay was selected to join one of the premier defense firms in Missouri right out of law school. Not long after, however, Lindsay realized that representing insurance companies was not what she wanted to do with her training. Instead, she joined a firm where she was able to protect the injured and their families and has never looked back. Lindsay’s fight for the injured continues as she devotes 100% of her time and skills to the practice of personal injury law.

At The Sumner Law Group, Lindsay is able to be a part of a group that treats every client like family and every case as its only case. Each day, Lindsay uses her advocacy skills to ensure that her clients don’t fall victim to corporate greed and bullying.

Community Involvement

A mother of two daughters, Lindsay frequently finds herself at national and local parks, the St. Louis Zoo, Botanical Gardens, and various volleyball courts throughout Illinois and Missouri. She enjoys cheering on her Fighting Illini, St. Louis Cardinals, St. Louis Blues, and Dallas Cowboys.
