About Lindsey S.
Lindsey S. Macon built a legal path that moves from classrooms to the federal bench and then into private practice. She graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2012 with degrees in political science and English. Three years later she earned her J.D. from Duke University School of Law, entering the practice with appellate and trial writing skills refined in law school.
Her earliest post-law-school position was a federal judicial clerkship. In 2015 she served as a law clerk to Judge Hugh Lawson in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Georgia. That year in chambers sharpened her legal research and writing on a wide array of federal matters. The clerkship exposed her to motion practice, opinion drafting and the cadence of federal litigation.
After the clerkship she moved into firm practice. She joined King & Spalding as an associate in 2017. At the firm she worked on matters that required teamwork across practice groups and careful attention to procedural detail. In 2019 she left to become a partner at McArthur Law Office. The move placed her in a leadership role at a smaller firm, where case strategy and client-facing responsibilities came to the fore.
Macon is admitted to practice in both Georgia and Florida. She has been active in the State Bar of Georgia’s Young Lawyers Division since 2015. Those memberships indicate an ongoing engagement with professional rules, bar programs and the networks that sustain courtroom practice across state lines.
Colleagues describe her as someone who blends the drafting rigor of federal clerkship with the practice demands of firm life. Her background spans the procedural rhythm of federal court, the collaborative environment of a national firm, and the day-to-day responsibilities of a firm partner. She has worked on briefs, motions and client matters that require clear analysis and concise presentation.
Outside of casework, Macon’s trajectory reflects a steady progression from judicial support to associate responsibilities and finally to firm leadership. That arc is common for attorneys who move from clerkships into litigation and management roles. It also clarifies how early experience in a federal courtroom can shape later practice choices.
She practices law at McArthur Law Office and is licensed in Georgia and Florida. Her current work draws on her federal-court experience and private practice responsibilities at the firm.
