A practice rooted in scholarship, public service and unflinching advocacy.

Counsel of conviction. Advocacy of distinction.

Greg Thompson is a Washington, DC-based attorney with a decade of practice before the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, the D.C. Court of Appeals and federal agencies. The firm represents corporations, public figures and private clients in matters that demand both technical mastery and steady courtcraft.

A native of the D.C. metropolitan area, Greg carries forward a family tradition of public service. His decision to read law was shaped by the constitutional guarantees that protect citizens against the asymmetries of power — a conviction that continues to anchor the firm's preference for hard-won justice over easy settlement, and for honest counsel over comfortable advice.

The practice is anchored in two flagship areas. Mining law, where he advises operators, investors and landowners on leases, royalty disputes, environmental clearances and proceedings before federal agencies. And criminal defence, where he appears in matters of bail, pre-trial release, trial advocacy, white-collar offences, RICO proceedings and FBI / DOJ investigations — handled with the discretion sensitive briefs require.

While the office is rooted in Washington, DC, Greg regularly appears before federal and state courts in Maryland, Virginia and throughout the mid-Atlantic region — particularly in mining, criminal and matrimonial matters that travel outside the District. The firm maintains long-standing local-counsel relationships throughout the region to ensure clients receive seamless representation wherever the brief takes them.

Beyond litigation, the firm maintains a robust civil and commercial advisory practice — drafting and negotiating contracts, structuring estate plans, and acting as mediator in family and business disputes. A meaningful share of the firm's calendar is dedicated to pro-bono representation for matters of genuine need.

A commitment to public welfare runs in the family. The Thompson family has a long history of community involvement in the D.C. area — supporting educational, religious and civic institutions — a legacy of service that continues to inform the firm's ethic. Greg is an active member of the District of Columbia Bar and a contributing member of the American Bar Association, where he engages with the wider community on questions of law, education and civic life.

Drawing on a wide professional network across the nation's institutional, political and regulatory corridors, Greg Thompson is well placed to navigate complex regulatory mandates and high-profile briefs with the discretion they demand. The firm's reputation rests on three habits — preparation that is exhaustive, advice that is honest, and representation that is personal.
