Lindsey Kellam Valenta

Attorney

Lindsey assists clients with acquisitions, dispositions, and leases of all types of real estate (including multifamily, retail, office, industrial, warehouse, mixed-use, and unimproved land).

She enjoys helping her clients assess and solve legal risks for a wide variety of commercial real estate projects. She has built a reputation for being thorough, diligent, and efficient when performing tasks and for being patient, personable, and persistent when working with people on both sides of the table.

“I am very driven by nature, and this quality translates well when representing my clients,” she says. “I go the extra mile to make sure my clients’ needs are met. My clients know they can depend on me to follow through and get the job done.”

Growing up in a family of business owners helps Lindsey relate to her clients and their challenges when starting a new business or project. “My family has been involved in real estate development since I was young. I became very interested in the real estate industry and ultimately, real estate law. I interned with a real estate law firm while I was in college and I was fascinated by the work. I’ve been dedicated to this business ever since.”

Outside the office, Lindsey enjoys seeing the tangible aspects of the real estate business. “Seeing the final result of a deal I worked on is very satisfying. I love that my work produces something that I can see every day in passing.”

Lindsey earned her B.A. from the University of Texas at Austin in 2015 and her J.D. from the University of Houston Law Center in 2018. While in law school, she was on the Moot Court Executive Board, a recipient of the University of Houston Dean’s Scholarship, and often on the Dean’s List for her academic achievements.

As a former University of Texas cheerleader, Lindsey enjoys going back to Austin for UT football games. She also enjoys traveling the world and jogging at Houston’s many parks.
