Practice Areas
Prior to joining BTO’s top tier Health and Safety, Regulatory and Criminal practice, Lindsay trained as a solicitor with the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service and worked on a number of high profile cases within the Proceeds of Crime Unit. She then worked in a busy Procurator Fiscals’ office and prosecuted a wide range of criminal cases from statutory breaches to common law charges in Court, from early procedural hearings through to trial. Now a dedicated criminal and regulatory defence solicitor, Lindsay has represented clients in a variety of criminal proceedings. She has also appeared with clients, including medical professionals and companies, in Fatal Accident Inquiries involving both Health and Safety and medical treatment issues. Having gained experience of appearing as both prosecution and defence in Court, Lindsay is able to consider cases from each perspective and offer sound advice on the prospects of criminal matters at an early stage.
