A Top Criminal Defense Attorney Who Cares

Scranton criminal defense attorney William D. Thompson has been named a Top 100 Trial Lawyer by The National Trial Lawyers for a reason. For two decades, Mr. Thompson has passionately and skillfully defended the rights of individuals inside and outside the courtroom. He is committed to providing his clients personal attention, care and compassion as part of a promise he made to his father decades ago.

“My father worked in a jail for more than 40 years. When I was in law school, he made me promise to treat my clients with respect and to listen to their stories. This is a promise I made, and it is a promise I intend to keep.”

The Individualized Attention Your Case Deserves

Thompson Law’s primary goal to help individuals in Scranton and Lackawanna County who have been arrested, accused or charged with a crime. Mr. Thompson knows that facing up against the criminal justice system – and the judges, juries and prosecutors involved – can be an overwhelming and frightening experience. This is especially true if you are unaware of your rights and options as your case moves forward.

Unlike some criminal defense lawyers, Mr. Thompson actually gets to know you, your story, your behavior and your goals. He provides you with the personal attention you need so you never feel alone at any juncture of your case. He develops a lifelong attorney-client relationship built on mutual trust, understanding and nonjudgmental communication that gives him the ability to leverage your case into the most favorable position possible.
