John P. Lynch

John describes himself as an “all-in advocate” for his clients who is ready to deal with an endless supply of challenges. Growing up in a household of business owners, John has an insider’s view of the challenges that business owners face day in and day out. Extremely knowledgeable and motivated, John has successfully litigated, negotiated and resolved numerous complex and highly contested business, construction and real estate matters for local and national companies and insurers. Whether he is representing a contractor, an IT firm, a mega church or a major insurance carrier, John’s ability to create winning strategies and his emphasis on risk management are fundamental elements to helping his clients through all stages of a business’ life cycle. Outside of the courtroom, you will either find John in College Park cheering on his Maryland Terrapins, wandering the streets of Historic Annapolis or spending time with family and friends.
