Lyndsey Gordon-Webb

About Lyndsey

Lyndsey is an Associate Director and heads up the firm’s Workplace Illness department, as well as leading its dedicated Military and Veterans legal service. She graduated from Cardiff University with a law degree in 2006 and qualified as a solicitor, building a career specialising in complex, high-value asbestos and industrial disease litigation.

Over more than a decade Lyndsey has worked on disease and injury cases throughout the world, including matters involving complex multi-jurisdictional issues and both individual and group actions. She has been involved in a number of high-profile cases that have resulted in millions of pounds of compensation for claimants, frequently taking on substantial opponents on behalf of injured people. Before joining Robertsons she held senior roles including Head of Disease Litigation at Watkins and Gunn and Partner in the Asbestos and Industrial Disease team at Hodge Jones & Allen in London, having begun her career at Hugh James.

Lyndsey leads Robertsons’ Military and Veterans service — a dedicated legal pathway for former service personnel and their families across the UK. The service offers clearer routes to advice on service-related injury and illness claims, employment rights, family matters and the often-confusing processes around medical discharge. Wales has one of the highest proportions of Armed Forces veterans in the UK, and the initiative is designed to ensure they are not left to navigate complex systems alone.

Lyndsey takes a holistic approach, working closely with medics, support workers and other professionals to support the whole of a client’s needs. Alongside her casework she regularly delivers training to members of the legal profession and to NHS institutions, and she works with charities supporting injured and military communities.
