Great Attorney.

I was having a serious problem with a subcontractor, did some looking around and calling to find someone that could help. Doing so I got a few referrals for Elizabeth. After talking to her on the phone, I knew she was the one for me. Compassionate and very caring, with all I have been going through.... Got the job done very quickly, and did what was needed to take care of the problem. I would 100% recommend her to anyone. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Elizabeth Thompson. Will use her again that is for sure.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have referred a number of my clients' litigation and personal injury cases to Ms. Thompson. She has always impressed me with her attention to detail in litigation matters that require an astute eye for the details. She co counseled with me on a trust litigation case, and her expert knowledge of the civil procedure rules and the legal strategies aided me greatly. She has helped clients through the difficult process of making a claim after serious injuries. She is always sensitive to the client's needs and concerns surrounding their medical recovery. I have observed her in action in depositions and watched her prepare for trial. She works tirelessly for these important events in the litigation process. I recommend her wholeheartedly for any personal injury cases or litigation matter, big or small."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
