Thompson Legal Support

Freelance Legal Research & Document Drafting Support

Reliable overflow support for solo practitioners and small law firms — demand letters, discovery, motions, research, and case support, delivered fast and reviewed by you before it ever leaves your desk.

Who I am

Ryan Thompson

I’m Ryan Thompson, a law graduate (LLB, 2:1) with hands-on experience drafting and supporting real litigation matters — including multi-count arbitration complaints, demand letters, and legal research under attorney supervision.

I founded Thompson Legal Support Services to give solo practitioners and small firms a dependable extra set of hands for the drafting and research work that eats up time you’d rather spend on strategy and clients. Every piece of work is delivered as a draft for your review and sign-off — you stay fully in control of what goes out under your name.

The Advantage

Why Firms Work With Me

A fraction of the cost of hiring

A part-time paralegal typically costs $2,000-2,500+ (£1,490-1,862+) a month in wages alone, before payroll taxes, benefits, or training — and you’re paying that whether or not there’s work to fill the hours. With Thompson Legal Support Services, you pay only for the documents you actually need, when you need them. No overhead, no idle cost during quiet weeks, no employment risk.

Fast turnaround

Most documents delivered within days, not weeks.

You stay in control

Every draft is reviewed and finalized by you before it goes anywhere near a filing.

Confidentiality first

Strict data handling practices for every client file, with confidentiality built into every engagement.

Real litigation experience

Background in AAA arbitration complaints, demand letters, and legal research, not just theory.

Revisions included

Every project includes revisions to make sure the final document matches exactly what you need — no extra charge for reasonable adjustments within the original scope.

Refer a firm, save on your next project

Know another attorney who could use support like this? Refer them, and once their first project is complete, you’ll both get 10% off your next order.
