Consistently excellent results

Ty has represented my company for 15+ years on numerous complex matters. He is proactive and provides balanced and thoughtful guidance and advice. When a matter is in his hands, you know it will be a priority to him and the firm.

Construction Law

Mr Thompson represented us on several construction defects lawsuits. He was knowledgeable, thorough, honest and timely. He was easy to work with and always responded to our questions or concerns in a timely manner. Mr. Thompson's efforts resulted in our cases being settled out of court.

Great Counselor

Ty is a common sense litigator that practices construction law with an understanding of the construction industry. No questions about it, I would recommend him to anyone needing legal advice or representation.

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.
