Alan Thompson

The Founder

In 1994 he recognised the need for change in legal costing profession. His vision resulted in the founding of Thompson Costs Consulting and Management Services which quickly developed into Thompson Legal Costing or TLC.

In doing so, Alan raised the standard for Legal Costing in Victoria, and in the year 2000 he took another great step and laid the foundation for Blackstone as we know it today.

It could be said that Alan has done more for legal costing than anyone else and it is certain that he has continually raised the bar for others to follow. Partnering with Paul and Charlie, Alan made Blackstone Victoria’s leading and most trusted service provider.

His vision however has been to take this success to the rest of the country and today Blackstome is represented all along the Eastern seaboard.

Blackstone wishes to thank Alan for his courage to step up and build a business that was larger than himself. His goal has always been to raise Blackstone to a level of professionalism that has lifted all boats. We are proud to say that he has achieved exactly that.
