About Lindsey
Lindsey Straus constructed a legal career that spans both personal practice and in-house work. She earned a bachelor’s diploma in U.S. records from Harvard University in 1973 and finished her J.D. at the University of Maryland Francis King Carey School of Law in 1977. Those educational years set the stage for steady movement between regulation companies and corporate counsel roles.
Her first post-law program role was as an associate at DLA Piper in 1977. She moved into an in-house role two years later, serving as senior advisor at Mobil Oil Corp. That position placed her inside a giant company legal team at some point of a duration of notable change in the power sector. Over the subsequent decade she returned to private practice and took on senior advisor positions at smaller companies. In 1988 she joined Fordham & Starrett as of counsel. Two years after that she started a senior advisor role at Mirick, O'Connell, DeMallie & Lougee in 1990.
Those transitions reflect a profession that balanced firm-side legal proceedings and advisory work with the particular demands of in-house counsel work. Her resume indicates experience in environments that require adapting to different institutional cultures and legal priorities. She has labored at a prime international company, inside a corporate legal department, and at regional firms. That variety formed her approach to client issues and legal strategy.
Colleagues who crossed paths with Straus through the years describe a person who moved among roles deliberately, taking on duties that matched the needs of the instant. She held each role for significant stretches, which suggests steadiness rather than a series of brief stints. The sequence of positions also points to an attorney relaxed each advising corporate clients and collaborating on firm-primarily based things.
Today she practices from the Law Office of Lindsey M. Straus in Massachusetts. The workplace displays an extended expert arc that started in the mid-1970s and continued thru the company and company roles of the 1980s and 1990s. Her background offers her a familiarity with the differing expectancies of in-house teams and outside counsel. Her recent practice makes a speciality of things in Massachusetts.
