Lindsey Morgan

Lindsey Morgan is an Of Counsel Attorney in Fennemore’s Business Litigation practice group. A seasoned attorney, Lindsey has spent years defending multimillion-dollar litigation and resolving complex pre-litigation claims in the real estate, insurance coverage, and general business and corporate sectors. She has represented corporate entities, including national real estate brokerages, insurance giants, and public utilities.

Prior to joining Fennemore, Lindsey provided strategic outside general counsel services and represented companies in litigation matters through her solo practice.  She simultaneously handled litigation in Washington and California as Of Counsel for Fellner Law Group. She has extensive experience representing insurers in insurance coverage litigation and providing insurance defense for real estate brokerages and their employees and agents in civil litigation.  Lindsey holds an inactive real estate broker license in both Idaho and California—offering valuable insights without competing with her clients’ interests.

She is an active member of the Rotary Club of Coeur d’Alene, where she serves on the grants committee.  Lindsey has a particular interest in using her civil litigation background to advise her clients on ways to proactively avoid future litigation.

After growing up in a wilderness area without electricity or refrigeration, Lindsey prefers to spend her free time outside.  When she is not in the office, Lindsey is a boy mom, avid hiker and gardener, and enthusiastic non-fiction reader.  Lindsey cultivates humility by regularly participating in Crossfit and is a late beginner to the game of golf.
