Lindsay N. Warnes

Lindsay Warnes is a Founding Partner and Senior Attorney at Willow Legal Group, where she focuses on creating custom estate plans that reflect each client’s unique family, priorities, and values. Practicing law since 2008, Lindsay’s career began in criminal defense and consumer protection before she discovered her true calling in estate planning. Since 2016, she’s dedicated her work to helping families protect what matters most and avoid unnecessary court involvement during difficult times.

Lindsay was drawn to the legal profession by a desire for meaningful, lasting client relationships. Inspired early in her career by a mentor whose passion for his clients never faded, she knew she wanted to build a practice that made a real difference in people’s lives. She loves connecting with families, hearing their stories, and helping them gain peace of mind through thoughtful planning.

While Lindsay works with clients from all walks of life, she especially enjoys helping parents of minor children create plans that safeguard their children’s future. One of her most shared pieces of advice is simple but powerful: “Life is unpredictable. Don’t wait until a tragedy happens before getting your plan in order.”

Outside the office, Lindsay’s happiest spending time with her family, cheering on THE Ohio State Buckeyes, and getting lost in romantasy novels. Fun fact — she once owned a CrossFit gym! Lindsay lives by the words of Henry Ford: “Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t, you’re right.”

What Lindsay values most about Willow Legal Group is its relaxed, collaborative atmosphere. “We’re professional, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously,” she says. “It makes the work lighter and the connections stronger — for us and for our clients.” 

And if you’re wondering what keeps her moving every day? Coffee. Lots of coffee.
