Tod Thompson has handled successful, high profile individual and class-action cases for over a decade. He has represented clients in matters including employment claims, contract disputes, medical leave issues, overtime pay, retirement benefit claims, and civil rights.
Victories for Tod's clients include a $5 million arbitration judgment, multiple six-figure settlements, resolution of an NFL player’s professional disability insurance claim, an appellate court decision affirming the rights of a former employee to fairly compete with a former employer, and numerous others. He has achieved success against corporations including Wal-Mart, Procter & Gamble, Dillard’s and Lloyd's of London.
Tod's innovative work has enjoyed national and local media coverage. He litigated a case involving a covenant not to compete, establishing what has been referred to as “an important new interpretation of the rights.” His representation as lead trial counsel in a Family Medical Leave Act illustrated "the importance of effective, good-faith communication” between an employer and employee. And in successfully representing a nationally renowned reporter, he was referred to as a “heavy-hitting employment law attorney.”
Tod has been named an Ohio Super Lawyer Rising Star and frequently lectures on employment law and court procedure.
