How Trent Swift Blends Legal Prowess with Philanthropy

Trent Swift is not one for skipping the finer details.

“I started collecting comic books with my father around the age of five,” he says, nodding towards his formidable collection. “I’m what you call a ‘completionist’ collector; someone who completes all the runs in a set or storyline. When I do something, I have to do it 200%."

As a partner at Lytal, Reiter, Smith, Ivey & Fronrath, Trent specializes in complex commercial and civil litigation. His impressive track record includes significant verdicts and confidential settlements that have established him as a prominent figure in the legal community.

But Trent’s influence extends far beyond the courtroom. Deeply rooted in his hometown of Palm Beach, Trent is a third-generation resident who actively contributes to his community. "The importance of giving back was instilled in me at a very young age," he says. "It’s deeply important to carry on that legacy for others and for my family."

Serving on the Board of the 211 Helpline of Palm Beach & Treasure Coast and the City of West Palm Beach Historical Board highlights his commitment to the area’s well-being.

Trent and his wife, Jessica, support many organizations, including the Palm Beach Symphony and the American Heart Association. At home, they share life with their two young sons. “Nothing drives me more than the love for our boys,” he says. “They push me to be the best version of myself every day.”
