Company History

Gibson Lamb & Company was formed in 1973 as a Partnership between Andrew Gibson & Barrie Lamb.

We are Independent Financial Advisers who aim to provide a high quality service at a competitive price. Our main areas of expertise are employee benefits, individual retirement planning, wealth management and lump sum investments.

David Lamb, Barrie's son & Clive Lynch completed a management buy out of the original Partnership in 2006 and now own a majority stake in the LLP.

David joined the Company in 1993 and has of course for some time been a very senior member of the team. He has also been instrumental in introducing the technology to which has allowed us to provide the efficient service our clients expect.

Clive joined Gibson Lamb in 2003 as a Pension Specialist and holds a number of additional Pension qualifications. His invaluable expertise will be of great importance in providing pension solutions to our clients in the light of the very complex changes to legislation which have just been introduced.

Whilst Barrie retired from the day to day running of the Company in 2004, it is very important to stress that Andrew remains very much involved with the new Company and is not retiring. Whilst the changes do provide an exit strategy for Andrew down the line, for the foreseeable future he will remain an integral part of the new team.

Following ‘depolarisation’ on 1st June 2005 we have decided to retain our Independent status and will therefore be offering a choice of either fees or commission as the basis of our remuneration.

Not all financial advisers will offer this choice but we believe passionately that the client should have the right to decide how to pay for the advice received.
