George Mathews Thompson Jr

We hired Attorney Thompson to represent an elderly parent with an issue involving a long-term care insurance policy. Attorney Thompson was extremely knowledgeable, thoughtful and skilled in navigating us to an excellent solution. He was very responsive, too. If he was being graded, he would get an A+....

Mr. Thompson came highly recommended to us and he lived up to his reputation and then some. He listened to our issue with a long-term care insurance policy and recommended an effective solution to stop the game-playing and get the benefits under the policy. One letter later and the problem was resol...ved! He knows the law and he is fast, efficient and results-oriented. I highly recommend George Thompson.

This is written in gratitude to Attorney George Thompson. I am the court appointed guardian of my 45-year-old son who suffered a traumatic brain injury caused by a motorcycle accident. When the insurance company providing my adult son's long-term disability benefits decided that he was no longer disa...bled I was stunned. The insurance company's decision was completely at odds with my son's ongoing cognitive and physical deficits diagnosed by licensed therapists and a neuropsychologist. Not surprisingly, a Social Security Administration review, conducted after the insurance company's termination decision, concluded that my adult son in fact has a continuing disability. Being an attorney, I thought the insurance company's ill-conceived decision would not be difficult to refute. I quickly learned that this area of the law is fraught with technical landmines and beyond my ability. I, also, learned that very few attorneys have the experience to navigate this esoteric area of the law. It was exceedingly difficult to obtain a referral for an attorney experienced in appealing terminations of long-term disability benefits. I was beginning to feel very discouraged and fearful that my son's benefits would never be reinstated. Then I spoke with Attorney George Thompson. He understood the severity of my son's injuries and the ramifications of the insurance company's arbitrary denial of benefits. I will never forget the sense of relief I felt after my first conversation with Attorney Thompson. In the years since my son's accident, I have found very few, even within the medical community, who understand the unique manifestations of a brain injury. Attorney Thompson has a keen knowledge and empathy of how a traumatic brain injury can subtly manifest itself. Given my son's diagnoses and Social Security Administration's decision, I knew we had grounds for a legitimate appeal. I also knew that there was no guarantee of a successful outcome. What I did know was that my son's appeal was in good hands with Attorney Thompson. When we received notice that Attorney Thompson had won my son's appeal, I was overwhelmed with gratitude. My son's benefits will be reinstated and he will receive retroactive payments. Most importantly Attorney Thompson's win required the insurance company to acknowledge that my son continues to be disabled. Attorney Thompson's work demonstrates the best of the legal profession. He is held in greatest esteem by our family.

After months of waiting for my insurance company to make a decision, my long term disability (LTD) claim was denied. I had suffered a medical crisis which left me with a disability and could not understand the insurance company's decision. I was fortunate to find and retain Attorney George Thompson w...ho is a highly skilled, experienced LTD attorney. He was a strong advocated for me. Attorney Thompson knew what critical information needed to be emphasized and he composed a clear, logic tight argument which resulted in the insurance company quickly reversing their denial decision, and approving my long term disability claim. Thank you Attorney Thompson!

So... My wife fell ill, which was stressful. She kept getting worse, which was more stressful. Then she needed oxygen and wheelchairs and couldn't work any longer and I had to sell my business and find a new job so I could stay home to care for her and we had doctor's appointments nearly every day an...d she was having seizures and her insurance kept denying that she was ill... Have I mentioned the stress yet? Then we found Mr. Thompson. When I look back at those two or three years when everything was bleak, confusing, scary, frantic, and (dare I say it?) stressful, but honestly, Mr. Thompson stands out as one of the very, very few bright points in our lives at that time. He was able to answer our frantic, barely coherent questions very calmly in language we could understand, he answered our messages and calls quickly, he shielded us from the insurance company so we weren't getting two or three letters a day from them, and was able to help us through one of the most difficult periods in our lives with grace. We finally felt as though we had a true ally in our fight, and that meant the world to us.
