About
Client-focused representation starts with listening. I listen to my clients’ needs, goals, and priorities. From there, I educate my clients about the law and process. Because information and knowledge empower a client. Which is especially important when my client feels unheard and powerless. And when a situation feels out of control.Together, my client and I collaborate as a team. We develop options. We evaluate solutions. We create strategy. All of which are customized to each client and their family. Our team may include the Firm’s supporting associate attorneys, paralegals, and legal assistants, as well as outside experts. Our team approach means that my clients are not left to face their situation alone or unsupported.As a family-focused attorney since 2002, my practice is dedicated to families and the complex legal challenges they face, for example:Family focus requires more than just knowledge, skills, and experience. This calls for compassion toward clients and families in crisis. An understanding of the complexity of family legal matters. Plus, a passion for helping to solve and resolve life’s most stressful challenges.No two families are alike. Customization honors the uniqueness of each client and family. My practice includes a variety of services designed to meet diverse family legal needs, whether:Likewise, no two clients are alike. Customized means client-driven representation, no matter how contested or uncontested. From mutual consent settlement, to strategic negotiation, to complex litigation and trial. I listen. We collaborate. I focus. We customize. To advocate for my client’s best interests.I am licensed to practice law in Maryland. I accept cases around the state, and frequently practice in Montgomery, Howard, Frederick, and Anne Arundel Counties.

Ms. Parvis maneuvered the treacherous waves and kept me off the rocks in gaining me a divorce. It was not your standard separation and divorce; we maintained the same residence the entire 2* years but Lindsay was able to get a mutual agreement so I could proceed with getting a divorce. She helped me realize what was realistic to expect as far as a fair expectation and what I should just “let it go” I. In the end, it became a business agreement. Lindsay helped me obtain my freedom with a fair and equitable settlement. She rocks!
I hired Lindsay to represent me during a divorce proceeding. While no one looks forward to this process, Lindsay's knowledge, professionalism, and compassion made the process much easier than expected. Based upon my experience I would highly recommend Lindsay.
I am very grateful to have someone as experienced and knowledgeable as Lindsay to initially help me with my post-nup and then finally with my divorce. She has a very professional and calming way about her that helped me to not get overly emotional during either process. She was timely to respond to emails and phone calls and kept me on track when I was slow to respond back to her. She was also fantastic at explaining everything to me regarding the pros and cons of my choices for the post-nup so I felt as if I was making the best decision for myself. Lindsay came recommended to me from a friend and it was definitely a great recommendation. I would highly recommend Lindsay to someone who is going through the difficult process of a divorce or needs assistance with either a pre- or post-nup agreement.
Throughout the entire divorce process, Lindsay Parvis and her team provided me not only with expert legal guidance, but also tremendous patience and support during a very tumultuous time. Her explanations were always clear, and her guidance was timely and appropriate for my situation. In addition, I was repeatedly impressed by her fluency with the applicable statutes, so that she was able to help me feel knowledgeable despite the unfamiliar territory of divorce law. Lastly, I was impressed by Lindsay's sense of fairness as we worked together to draft my settlement agreement. I highly recommend Lindsay to anyone who needs a divorce attorney in Maryland.
I was suprised when my wife of 20 years filed for divorce. I asked a close friend who is a lawyer for his recommendations. I interviewed both and Lindsay really stood out as experienced, knowledgeable, and skilled and someone who would be willing to work with me to give me all the options to help me accomplish my goals through this horrible situation. It turned out that Lindsay works for one of the top firms and this was so helpful to have other skilled lawyers available for consultation as needed. Her experience shined through the whole long process, whether it was guiding me by telling me all the details that I had to do to gather all the relevant information as we built our case, or discussing the outside consultants we could hire for the trial and how each one would help our side. Her prep work on teaching me how to and how not to respond to questions for my deposition was phenominal! And it really showed as she, ahead of time, explained her process when disposing my ex and then seeing all the pitfalls my ex fell in to by Lindsay's skilled questioning! (Where was my ex's prep work?) At one point during the year, leading up to the end of the divorce, my ex was telling me how fabulous my lawyer was and how her lawyer (who was highly recommended!) was clearly no match, then we compared our lawyer's charges and my ex's were so much higher than mine even though my charges included the two specialists we hired, and given the fact that Lindsay had a higher billable rate than her "highly recommended" lawyer! My ex is so lucky she agreed to settle! I knew my children (ages 16 up to 22) would be living with her so I wanted to be very generous but if she did not agree to settle (which she did not do until the last minute, she was never reasonable and seemed to feel like she was owed more than 100% of everything! ), between her lawyer being totally outclassed by Lindsay, and our side so much more fully prepared, and including our two expert consultants, she would have been killed in the trial! All in all, Lindsay made every aspect of this process go so well and I would highly recommend her to a friend, family member, or anyone!
