My wife and I were put on a CACI list in 2018 we reached out to Tate. My wife read everything on his websites and others,question him and determine that he sounded like he knew what he was talking about. You can never be sure it like finding a good mechanic. He made us do the homework he recommends o...n his website. Well worth it. We went line by line over the Investigation report. Tate came over very honest to let you know what he thinks about the outcome, good or bad. He prepares you for the hearing officer and lawyers and the attorney was brutal. Tate new how to handle the law better than the other attorney. He about facts and what you can prove and disprove not about feelings and emotion, great lawyer and thankyou

Tate Lounsbery was recommended to us by a respected and loved attorney friend of ours at the time we received CPS's decision on our case. We were filled with despair, fear, and stress at this time and our friend's glowing recommendation of Mr. Lounsbery gave us the first glimmer of hope. He told us t...hat Mr. Lounsbery was "the best child abuse appeal hearing attorney in Southern California" and was someone we most definitely needed in our corner. Following this recommendation, we ended up interviewing just one other attorney in addition to Tate. Tate's knowledge of the process, the laws surrounding child abuse and child endangerment in our state, and his overall compassionate, yet straight forward and confident demeanor shined through in the interview process. We did not have to think twice to hire him after this initial meeting. You will NOT find anyone better. He charges a flat rate that may seem high, initially, but once you begin the process and realize how many variables there are and how much time is spent waiting, you will clearly see the reason for the seemingly high fee. You cannot predict how long things will take and because these cases are Tate's specialty, we fully trusted him and it paid off. Tate had us fully prepared when our hearing date came around and he worked tirelessly to find laws in our favor and so very eloquently delivered and prepared many indisputable arguments that neither we or, I believe, any other attorney could have. The decision, in our case, was changed from "substantiated" to "inconclusive!" We are forever grateful for Tate!

I'm so thankful to have hired Tate's services last year after I was put on CACI by the San Mateo County CPS. Tate's knowledge of the CPS's workings is invaluable for his clients. My name was taken off of CACI recently and I credit it all to Tate's persistence. Moreover, Tate came across as very under...standing, nonjudgmental, honest, and frank in our initial communication. I value this a lot in a person. In short, he didn't promise me anything but delivered well above & beyond my expectations. I would highly recommend Tate to anyone in a similar situation like mine. Thank Tate!

Tate is an amazing lawyer! He accepted my case to have my name removed from the CACI when other lawyers refused to take on the case. The day of the grievance hearing Tate presented my case and proved his great knowledge of law and ability to build a great argument. When no other attorney gave me hop...e not only did Tate give me hope he won my case.
