About Thompson & Litton Founded in 1956 by engineers William A. Thompson, Jr. and John W. Litton, our firm was built on a foundation of integrity, professionalism, and a commitment to client success. Over 68 years later, this tradition remains at the heart of everything we do. What began as a small staff of seven has grown into a regional firm offering a comprehensive range of engineering, architectural, surveying, planning, and construction administration services. We emphasize creative, sustainable solutions tailored to the specific needs of each project and community.
