Scott Lindsey
Scott joined the firm in 2017. Scott is Board Certified in Civil Appellate Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization and AV-Rated by Martindale-Hubbell. His practice encompasses all areas of civil trials and civil appeals and includes a diverse array of substantive content: divorce and child custody, consumer and business disputes, and commercial and probate litigation. Scott also consults with trial attorneys from other law firms to evaluate the merits of petitions for writ of mandamus and civil appeals and to research and write briefs on complex and potentially case-dispositive civil matters. Scott takes a personal interest in each of his client’s cases and works tirelessly toward justice for his clients.
Scott graduated magna cum laude from Texas Wesleyan School of Law (now Texas A&M University School of Law) in 2002 and served as a law review Notes & Comments Editor. After graduation, Scott was elected to the law school alumni association board of directors, served a term as president of the board of directors, and worked for several years as an organizer of The Chief Justice Joe Greenhill Golf Tournament. In 2013, Scott was appointed by Texas A&M University Provost Karan Watson to the Texas A&M School of Law Dean Search Advisory Committee. Also in 2013, Scott started a term on the Texas A&M University School of Law Dean’s Advisory Council. In 2016, Scott was appointed as an ex officio member of the Community of Law Graduates Board of Directors for Texas A&M University School of Law.
