Do not hire these lawyers they don’t reach out to help you. I had to call them constantly to see how my case was going. They did the bare minimum and charged top dollar. Don’t waste your time I would never recommend them or use them again. Once my case was over I asked for a final bill which I paid and then they send out another after that. Very disappointing that they are able to get away with these actions

Response from owner

I was involved in a short term marriage whereby I was taken advantage of by a spouse who used me and my medical benefits to her advantage, only to pickup and leave while trying to destroy me and take my home on the way out. Thompson and Belnap have truly come to my rescue. I am a hard working blue collar worker and I needed the best help money could afford. I felt that Thompson and Belnap truly came to my rescue and delivered top notch legal service to save myself, my home, my mental well being and much more. Special thanks to Attornery Peter Thompson who is top notch on top of his game, Attorney Lorretta Barron and also a special thanks to Natasha DeLoach and the friendly staff members helping me through these tough times! Thank you soo much!!!

This is Brooke Chavez not Gabby my daughter. I do not know how her name was associated with this account. My experience with this law firm was excellent!!! I had a deadline to get my real ID so I could fly to my daughter’s house. Court said it would be at least 2 weeks with a lawyer to receive my documents. Virginia and I became close, exceptional customer service!! This firm acted the same day that I called! I received my documents a week to the day that I called!!! I get to fly to see my daughter and I am soo grateful!

I was able to use Attorney Loretta Barron for multiple family RFO hearings and also a family court trial hearing. Mrs. Attorney Barron has been beyond great with communication and keeping me informed with the case during regular hours and emails after hours. Her Paralegal Kenia also has been very informative and always keeping me in the loop with each step. In the court room Mrs. Barron is aggressive without being verbally aggressive. She is an attorney who knows the family code and knows how to represent your case so you have a fair hearing. As a FATHER I always thought the family law was never in favor for a father but after multiple court dates and a family trial hearing I realized that it comes down to a skill and actual knowledge of family codes and knowing your case. Mrs. Barron has demonstrated that she over exceeds the minimum requirements and goes over and beyond for your case. I would highly recommend if you are a father and your doing the right thing for your child and have records for her to defend you then I would recommend her. And I would recommend also women also if you have a good case and proof and need representation then use Mrs. Barron. Again I cannot stress Mrs. Barron is diamond style attorney who will not break under pressure. I have used also Mr. Peter Thompson the head partner of the firm and I would say Mr. Thompson has skilled attorneys and he has been great to me and my family! Thank you Mr. Thompson and a big round of applause for Mrs. Barron for handling a case for almost a year and never giving up even when things seemed impossible. I give Thompson & Belnap a 10 out of a 10. This firm is the firm for your needs! What are you waiting for give them a call if you need help with your legal matters! 🤙🏿

I had the pleasure of connecting with Peter Thompson regarding a prenuptial agreement matter and was thoroughly impressed by his professionalism and depth of expertise. He offered valuable insight and demonstrated a clear, thoughtful approach to the legal and relational dynamics involved in these agreements. Peter is a highly skilled attorney who approaches his work with integrity, clarity, and a collaborative spirit. His willingness to share his knowledge and experience speaks volumes about his dedication to the practice and the broader legal community.

T&B helped us adopt our daughter through a very thorough and well executed process. They were thoughtful, prompt, and very professional while still maintaining a kind and positive adoption process. We will return to them when we look into adopting baby number two!

As a grateful and satisfied client, I can confidently say that hiring Peter Thompson from Thompson & Belnap was one of the best decisions my family and I ever made. My case was particularly complex and challenging, but Peter's expertise proved invaluable. His strategic thinking, attention to detail, and professionalism were crucial to its success. Peter is an exceptional lawyer; his deep knowledge and understanding of the law, along with the immense respect he commands both in and out of the court room, set him apart from others in the field. Peter went above and beyond to assist me and my family with our legal matters, and we are truly grateful! I highly recommend Peter Thompson and his firm to anyone in need of exceptional legal representation.

I have unfortunately had to hire many attorneys in my life, good and bad. Thompson and the team he has assembled are top rate. They are there to do what's best for you, your case, and your family. Not what will give them more billable hours like so many attorneys. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone needing sound legal advice and top tier team to represent you

Response from owner

It’s been great working with you on every aspect of your cases. Our success is in large part due to your confidence in our firm and services. Your continued referrals to the firm have shown this support and we appreciate it. Hopefully you will not need our services again in the future, but we are always ready to help.

Most of our communication was done via email. After putting down the large retainer we paid thousands over for a step parent adoption. We would pay the invoices without asking questions or for detailed itemizations. They kept adding up till the point that my uncle scratched his head due to the fact of we exceeded the typical cost of stepparent adoption. I did the research it’s true. I believe we are getting over charged and being a military family income is limited. After paying another large balance in November I thought that was it. But no we wake up to almost another thousand due which I’m so confused as to why since the adoption happened over a month ago. They didn’t go to the court date to finalize and only sent us the adoption letter via mail since then? Work with people that won’t take advantage and over charge for every little thing. I wish we did more research instead of paying over thousands than the typical lawyer would charge for the same service.

Response from owner

Hi Anna, Thank you for the review and for working with us to get your adoption finalized. We have helped hundreds of clients just like you and adoptions remains one of our passions. I appreciate your thoughtful feedback and the fact that you updated your rating to 4 star after we spoke. While I cannot divulge confidential information, I can indicate that contested adoptions can be very complicated and each presents unique circumstances and costs based on those circumstances. We strive to provide great service at a reasonable cost, including discounts for our military members. This often includes participating in adoption finalization hearings, but that is not always possible when other contested matters arise. As always, we continue to strive to improve our services and we will continue to do so. We hope you have continued to do well and have enjoyed your time with your family.
