MIP Case

Tate Lounsbery made my case (MIP) very easy on me. He asked me to do a few things for him to get some more information about me as a person. I didn't have to show up to court once and he kept me relatively updated. My court case got dismissed and I couldn't be happier and for a relatively reasonab...le amount of money.

Turned my life around

I was convicted of a felony and feared for the worse. Tate not only helped me motion to have the felony reduced to a misdemeanor but he was also able to expunge the misdemeanor from my records. Tate was very diligent in his work and kept me involved in the process so that I was never left wondering... what would happen next.

Dedicated, honest and smart lawyer

Hiring a criminal lawyer is not something anyone is looking forward to do. Tate is an honest lawyer that is clear and direct. The legal process is very complex and there are more gray areas than there is black and white. The sound advice of your lawyer is the single most important part of your legal ...defense and Tate provides that.

Excellent Attorney - knowledgeable and hard working

I was arrested for DUI and contacted Tate after reading his reviews here. He gave me many options on how to deal with the criminal case and followed up on every aspect of it. I was charged with a hit and run and two DUI charges and was able to get the hit and run and one DUI charge dismissed. ...I didn't have to appear in court and he took care of everything. His flat fee was very reasonable for the amount of time and effort he put into my case. He followed up with weekly emails and was always responsive to my questions and phone calls. I would not hesitate to recommend Tate to anyone. He is an oustanding attorney.

Very satisfied!

I live in the Sacramento area and was in San Diego when I received a Minor in Possession at a house party. I was right outside the house when a cop picked me out of a group and asked me what I had in my hand. He proceeded to have me pour out my remaining half can of beer and gave me an MIP infraction.... I was in an absolute panic when I found out this could result in not only a court ordered fee, but also my license suspension for an entire year! I desperately called around trying to get the advice of lawyers in the area. Most of them I spoke with gave me very little advice and stated I would need to pay their very pricey fee for further consulting. When I called Tate, he initially spoke with me for close to an hour without even discussing rates. I instantly trusted him and was very relieved when I found out he offered a student rate for me, being that money is obviously limited. He was always available for my many questions throughout the process and was extremely knowledgably with not only the violation and different coding’s, but also of the personalities and tendencies of the judges in that area when it came to convictions. He coached me through the various steps that would give me my absolute best chance of saving my license and in the end was indeed able to plea with the judge and officer in order to drop my violation down to a minor in consumption infraction which reserved my license and came with a small fee. He instantly sent me all of my closing documentation and has even kept up with me after the fact to make sure I pay my fee on time! If you are looking for a lawyer with extensive knowledge, great rates, and great accessibility, I highly recommend calling Tate!
