My experience with Thompson & Thompson far exceeded my expectations!! All you need to know before walking into this law firm is Jeffery Valladolid is who you want to represent you. I originally used yelp to find Thompson & Thompson the comment below from 2014 alarmed me, but after doing my research, and talking to friends who had used them I had to give them a chance. I came in to Thompson and Thompson for a consultation with Bryon Thompson he reassured me that my custody case would be a breeze. Mr. Thompson's knowledge and reassurance set the tone for my whole journey and I could not be more satisfied. He handed me off to Jeffery Valladolid who I sat down with a few days after hiring him. He is singularly professional, knowledgeable, honest, upfront, ethical and respectful. Mr. Valladolid took the time to explain every step of the way in complete detail. I felt comfortable enough to ask him questions because he would ALWAYS give me every single outcome or scenario(good and bad). I was never nervous or unsure in court. Jeffery was well prepared and extremely professional. He was able to help me gain full custody of my child. If your looking for someone who is knowledgeable and professional Jeffery is your guy. He is a graceful shark who impressively uses his vast knowledge of the law; best word to describe him is smooth. Thompson & Thompson's paralegals are easy to work with and the staff is very accommodating. This was such a painless process for me and I highly recommend! You get more than what you pay for and that is rare to find!

Byron is very knowledgable. Nice. Bulldog. However, he was reading someone elses file while we were in front of the judge! Later, when we went back to court we hired him again, gave him $5000, he cancelled at least 10 appointments without notice and failed to return our retainer. It's been almost a year now. Their billing office manager quit recently, apologizing to us for the terrible way we have been treated. This seems to be a pattern. Too bad. He's a smart lawyer.

I was recommended to hire Mr. Tuckerman but was later routed to Mr. Thompson. Little did I know until 3 months later that Mr. Tuckerman no longer actively practices with this firm. As a result they are swamped with work and not responsive to your needs. It took over 30 days for them to respond to one of my inquiries. I had an emergency and I couldn't speak to an attorney for 5 days. The lawyers may be good, but they are not responsive in a timely manner to the needs of a divorce client. On top of that there is no single person like a paralegal you can call to speak about your case. Go with with a small firm where you will get more personalized attention.
