About Lydia

Lydia Seifner built a pathway to law that began in psychology. She graduated from Drury University with a B.A. in Psychology in 2010. She later returned to Valparaiso University, earning both a J.D. from Valparaiso University School of Law and an M.A. in Psychology in 2015.

Her early coursework in psychology informs how she approaches client matters. After law school she moved into practice in Missouri. Her first recorded role was as an associate at Wyatt Law & Associates, LLC in 2016. The following year she took on associate duties at Stange Law Office, PC and then is listed as a lawyer at Springfield Family Law, LLC beginning in 2017.

Those positions exposed her to family court dockets, custody evaluations and other domestic matters. She is a certified Guardian ad Litem through the Missouri Bar Association. That certification reflects courtroom responsibilities involving the representation of children and conducting fact-finding in sensitive family disputes.

Seifner has maintained professional ties in the Springfield legal community. She has been a member of the Springfield Metropolitan Bar Association since 2016. Earlier, she held membership in the Christian Legal Society from 2014 until 2016. Records show an additional membership entry beginning in 2016 and listed as current, though the specific organization name is not specified.

Colleagues describe her as someone who brings a clinical understanding of family dynamics to legal strategy. She has handled cases that require careful factual development and collaboration with experts. In court she has worked on matters that range from custody and visitation to support and protective orders. Her work as a guardian ad litem has required detailed reports and testimony on a child’s best interests.

Her practice history is rooted in Springfield, Missouri, and she continues to practice within the Missouri bar. At Springfield Family Law she practices family law and related services, combining legal training and psychological insight when preparing cases and advising clients.

She remains active in local bar activities and continues to accept family law matters in Springfield. Her current practice focus is family law and guardian ad litem work at Springfield Family Law, LLC.
