Excellent

If you are fortunate enough for Mrs. Thompson to agree to take your case, you will discover that her impressive technical knowledge of the law is outmatched only by her care for her client’s best interest and more importantly the innocent children stuck in the middle of a relentless legal battle. M...oney can’t make someone care, but you can hire the right person who will care. I had to let go of my previous counsel for a multitude of reasons. It was a difficult decision however I realized that if I had made this change earlier not only would it have saved me wasted money but may have altered the legal path all together. Mrs. Thompson discussed options with me that I never knew existed. This is where the technical knowledge of the law and the willingness to care for your clients merge. I am still learning from her and although the legal process is painful and risky, I learned by comparison that I am in very good hands. That’s what you would buy if you could. Mrs. Thompson was recommended to me by another attorney who opposed her in court previously and lost. He recommended only 3 attorneys from Lake Charles to Baton Rouge. Mrs. Thompson was first on his list. Make your short list carefully and retain her if you can.

I initially hired Ms Danielle and her associates to bring wrath to my child's mother. I had brought with me a mountain of evidence supporting my vendetta. I had red in my eyes, but they calmed me down and made me realize that the best interest is for the child. It took some time to realize wha...t really matters in this ugly fight that my child is unfortunately a part of. I was being selfish. The mountain of evidence that I had, was just a reflection of my blind urge to prove that I am better than my child's mother. Danielle showed me that none of that matters in the long fight for the child's well-being. She showed me that it was my job to put the child first, and her job to make sure that my child receives the best from both parents. I am now focusing on his well being and his mother's as well. She will be a part of his life regardless of how I feel. The result of my case? One very happy little boy. That's really all that matters. There is no winning or losing in custody battles. Her team are always available to answer my call when I have an issue. I would highly recommend Danielle Thompson.

Excellent Lawyer

In my experience with Danielle Thompson, I've found her to be a very aggressive and sharp attorney. In the last six months she has successfully achieved in dismissing multiple bogus motions against me, by my ex-wife. She is extremely thorough and makes sure all paperwork is accurate and any filing...s are worded correctly. She seems to have a good working relationship with multiple people in the court process and understands the ebb and flows of the court system. I highly recommend Danielle. Even though this has been a very trying and unhappy situation, she has done her best to continue to fight for me and my livelihood.

Excellent attorney, very thorough and thoughtful

Danielle is great, she cares about the children first. She was very specific, detailed and didn't let anything go unchecked. I would absolutely hire her again if needed.

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.
