Peter is a litigator at heart. When you need someone to stand up for you in the courtroom and fight for your rights, Peter should be your first call.

Peter has been serving the legal needs of the people of the Upper Peninsula and Northeastern Wisconsin since 1973. In those 40+ years, Peter has developed a reputation for excellence not only in the courtroom, but also in the boardroom. His legal skills extend beyond litigation, as he helps individuals, families, and businesses plan for the future.

Peter has drafted wills and trusts since he began practicing. With a thorough and up-to-date knowledge of both Michigan and Wisconsin estate law, Peter and the Ryan & Lynch Law Offices team craft individualized solutions to each client’s unique challenges.
