In 2014, Joseph Lindsay and Todd Allen met at a local restaurant to explore the idea of forming a law partnership. That conversation led to the founding of Lindsay & Allen, PLLC in May of the same year. By combining Todd’s litigation experience with Joe’s expertise in trusts and estates—and drawing on their shared knowledge of real estate and business law—they built a full-service law firm dedicated to providing comprehensive legal solutions.

In 2020, they expanded their services with the launch of Gulf Coast Title Services, LLC, further enhancing their ability to serve clients across multiple areas of law.

After 11 successful years, Joseph Lindsay retired in May 2025 to pursue a service opportunity in the Philippines alongside his wife. Following Joe’s departure, Todd rebranded the firm as Gulf Coast Counsel, continuing their legacy of client-centered legal service under a new name.
