What Peter Lynn and Partners does

Peter Lynn and Partners is a full-service law firm headquartered in Swansea, South Wales, operating nine physical offices across the Swansea Bay City Region and Carmarthenshire. Founded in 1999 as Swansea Solicitors and rebranded under its current name, the firm is regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA no: 00344933) and holds Lexcel practice management accreditation. It serves two principal client groups in roughly equal measure: businesses and business people (company and commercial law, M&A, commercial property, banking and finance, employment law, agricultural law, public and third sector) and individuals and families (divorce, family law, residential conveyancing, wills/probate/trusts, lasting powers of attorney, personal injury, litigation, crime, and LGBTQI+ matters).

The firm employs between 11 and 50 staff and operates a partnership structure, with disclosed partners including founder Peter Lynn (also Chair of Swansea BID), Sophie Pincott (family/LGBTQI+), Amy Matthews (wills/probate, promoted July 2024), and consultants including Rob Cherry (commercial M&A). There is no proprietary technology product; service delivery is conducted face-to-face at the firm's offices, by telephone, and through website enquiry routing. The firm operates a content marketing programme (advice articles, video content), a free 30-minute initial consultation offer, and an extensive regional sport sponsorship portfolio (Swansea City AFC in its ninth season, Ospreys, Wales Cricket, multiple local rugby and tennis partnerships) as its principal customer acquisition channels.

Revenue is generated entirely from professional services fees charged on a matter-by-matter basis across its 16 disclosed practice areas. No public revenue, ARR, or transaction volume data is disclosed. The firm has raised no external funding and operates as an independent partnership; growth has been funded organically and evidenced by physical office expansion (Gorseinon opened October 2025, Llanelli relocated September 2025) and partner-level promotions rather than M&A or capital raises.
