About Thompson Law Office

Thompson Law Office is a solo practice in Cambridge, Ontario, led by Kimberley M. Thompson, who was called to the Ontario bar in 2002. The firm concentrates on family law, and its work reaches across the issues that follow a separation, from marriage and cohabitation agreements to divorce, parenting arrangements, child and spousal support, and dividing property. Alongside family matters, the practice handles residential real estate and wills and estates, so related legal needs don't have to be spread across several offices.

Much of the family work here leans away from the courtroom. Thompson has specialized training in Collaborative Family Law, mediation, and children's law, and the firm's stated aim is to help separating parents preserve a working parenting partnership while reaching a fair settlement. The founder holds a B.S. from Cornell University and an LL.B. from the University of Western Ontario, and is a lifelong resident of Cambridge. That local footing shows in the firm's ties to the Cambridge Chamber of Commerce and to the region's collaborative practice community.

The neighbourhood

The office sits at 9 Salisbury Avenue, a residential street in the West Galt part of Cambridge, close to the older downtown Galt core beside the Grand River. Cambridge itself was formed in 1973 by amalgamating Galt, Preston, Hespeler, and the settlement of Blair, and the Galt district grew up as a mill and manufacturing town powered by the river, once nicknamed the 'Manchester of Canada.' Running a family practice from a quiet neighbourhood street rather than a downtown tower suits work that's often personal and unhurried, and the founder is a lifelong resident of the city.
