About Lindsee Acton
Lindsee Acton Scherich built an unconventional academic foundation before entering the courtroom. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in Women’s Studies and American Studies from the University of Kansas in 2008. She returned to school seven years later and finished both a Master of Social Work and a Juris Doctor at Washburn University and Washburn University School of Law in 2015.

After law school, Scherich became lively in the legal communities of both Kansas and Missouri.

Those memberships positioned her in networks that consist of judges, experienced practitioners and more recent attorneys. The connections helped her pass between public roles and personal practice.
In 2018 she served as a court trustee for Wyandotte County. The trustee role concerned administrative oversight of courtroom processes and working directly with litigants on procedural matters. That knowledge gave her day-to-day publicity to household court calendars and the realistic mechanics of local courtroom systems. It is a short but concrete episode in a profession that balances court process and client interplay.
