About Lindsay A. Lawrence

When medical care causes harm instead of healing, families are left searching for answers, accountability, and a way forward. Lindsay Lawrence is a medical malpractice lawyer who represents people during some of the most painful moments of their lives, with compassion, clarity, and resolve. Lindsay has devoted her practice to representing individuals and families who have been injured—or lost a loved one—due to medical negligence. Her work focuses on medical malpractice, birth injuries, anesthesia and medication errors, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, paralysis, and wrongful death. She understands that these cases are not just legally complex, but deeply personal, and she approaches each one with care and respect for what her clients are living through. Lindsay is known for being both compassionate and prepared. She listens closely, explains the process clearly, and builds cases thoroughly. Families trust her not only because she cares, but because she knows how to prove what went wrong. Her trial and settlement record reflects that commitment. Lindsay has obtained multi-million-dollar verdicts and settlements in cases involving wrongful death, birth injury, and serious medical error, including: • A $6,000,000 verdict for injuries caused by OB/GYN negligence; • A $3,000,000 verdict for wrongful death in Hamilton County; • A $1,000,000 jury verdict for permanent nerve damage caused by IV infiltration; • Multiple high seven-figure pre-trial resolutions, including recoveries of $6.5 million, $4.5 million, and $3.25 million. In one case, Lindsay joined a matter just weeks before trial and helped secure an $825,000 jury verdict after the defense had offered only $90,000—demonstrating her ability to step in, prepare quickly, and deliver results when the stakes are high. Lindsay is widely respected by her peers for both her advocacy and leadership. She has been selected repeatedly by U.S. News & World Report’s Best Lawyers for Medical Malpractice – Plaintiffs and Personal Injury – Plaintiffs, named an Ohio Super Lawyer, and recognized earlier in her career as a Rising Star. She currently serves as President of the Ohio Association for Justice and holds leadership roles in national and regional organizations dedicated to protecting the civil justice system. A lifelong resident of the Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky area, Lindsay remains deeply connected to the community she serves. She is actively involved in legal, civic, and pro bono organizations and believes strongly in standing up for people when systems fail them. For families facing the aftermath of medical negligence, Lindsay brings not only experience and strength—but empathy, patience, and unwavering advocacy. She believes every client deserves to be heard, respected, and supported from the first conversation through the resolution of their case. Awards and Honors Super Lawyers® Selectees Lindsay A.
