James Lynch

Spear’s Review

Taking the lead in some of Maltin’s most sensitive and difficult cases, James Lynch always seeks to tease out the ‘optimum story arc’ for his clients, according to the firm. Known for his speed, Lynch can parse complex legal arguments from detailed court notes and dovetail corresponding media strategies with a rapid-fire turnaround.

His high-stakes legal support for HNWs includes work with an Italian billionaire embroiled in a cross-jurisdictional financial dispute.

Au fait with international PR challenges, Lynch remains unfazed when clients’ reputational struggles play out against tense geopolitical relationships: he recently assisted one central bank in a fraught media campaign, which sought to repatriate 30 tonnes of gold from another central bank.
