Excellent representation! Highly recommend!!

Highly recommended! We met with Mr Thompson and his staff regarding a very complex, multi-state custody issue that has become an international news story. Although we had met with several other attorneys prior, we are so thankful we kept looking until we found Dhu Thompson! After one meeting, our ...confidence level was boosted greatly knowing we had chosen the right representation. Lots of attorneys will tell you things and make all kinds of promises but in our experience, very few have actually delivered. Dhu Thompson delivers results! We have been working with them for over a year now, have done multiple court appearances and they have done a great job. I say “they” because it’s not just Dhu (who is an excellent attorney) but his entire team. Straight-forward, honest and and up front about your issues. I would not hesitate recommending Mr. Thompson & his team to handle your legal needs, no matter how complex. They have certainly done an excellent job with our extremely complex custody issues. I am confident they will work just as hard and do a great job for you as well.

Quick and professional

Dhu has handled business litigation and power of attorneys for us. He is effective in court. His staff is courteous and professional. Highly recommend him for any litigation needs.

Simply the best!

Mr. Thompson represented me in a business litigation trial. I was wrongfully sued by a corporation for several hundred thousand dollars. Mr. Thompson successfully defended my case at trial and the court returned a verdict in my favor. I highly recommend him if you need a trial litigator in court. ... Very satisfied with his services!

Great Lawyer

I hired Dhu to represent me in a case facing serious jail time. I was made aware of the plea bargain offered but I believed I was innocence of any wrong doing and Dhu truly believed me when others seemed doubtful. Dhu fought for me and litigated for my freedom when my life was on the line, with all o...f his experience in jury trials I felt really confident having him as my attorney during this difficult and stressful time.

Outstanding

Mr. Thompson took on a criminal case for a member of my family. I truely believe he was committed to Justice for his client. It took two years to go to trial (DA delayed not Mr Thompson). He stays in communication with his client and is also compassionate about his clients situation. He knows the law... and doesn't hesitate to research cases that could help his client as well as reach out to expert witnesses for assistance during trial. With his previous experience as a prosecutor he is well aware of what the prosecutors next step will be. His courtroom experience is very apparent when you go to trial. Our outcome was successful because Mr Thompson was able to show the jury that the homicide was justified. Client found unanimously not guilty. Again I highly recommend Dhu Thompson and his entire staff for all your legal concerns.
