Meet The Team

Lindsay Kennedy

Founder & President

Lindsay Kennedy is an attorney with nearly two decades of experience, currently practicing in Texas with a focus on estate planning, business law, and real estate. She is licensed in Florida, Washington, Kentucky, and Texas and began her career as a law clerk for two federal judges. She then ran her own remote practice for ten years, providing legal research and writing across litigation and transactional matters, including bankruptcy, personal injury, civil rights, appellate work, elder law, family law, criminal motions and appeals, contracts, estate planning, and general civil litigation.

As a military spouse, Lindsay never stayed in one place longer than three years, living in Korea, Germany, New York, Tennessee, Florida, Alabama, and Washington. That experience led her to found Legal Reinforcements, a company that helps law firms hire military spouses as remote legal assistants, paralegals, and attorneys. She now works for SimpleLawTX in Houston. Outside of work, she enjoys time at home with her husband, a retired Army Apache pilot, and their two daughters.

Alexis Cole

Director of Operations

Alexis has been a military spouse for 3 years. She met her husband in Florida while he was stationed at MacDill AFB. Alexis has (luckily) only lived in Florida. Her favorite thing about living in Florida is that no matter where you are located there is always a beach nearby. Alexis graduated from Polk State College in October 2023 with her Bachelor’s in Business Administration. 

Alexis is employed at Vaksman Khalfin as an estate planning paralegal. Her experience lies estate planning and probate matters. She has also dabbled in litigation trademark law.

Alexis’ previous roles as a Team Leader and Assistant Operations Director at Chick-fil-A showed her love for going above and beyond with customer service and professionalism. This experience has developed her urge to help people in the present as well as in their futures. Alexis wants to continue to show military spouses that they too can have a career while supporting their service members.
