ABOUT

R. Tate

Tate believes that effective legal representation is centered around communication and developing a deep understanding of the client’s needs and goals. For the businesses he represents, it is important to recognize that, while the business entity is the client, the people at the company are crucial to its success. By taking the time to learn the company’s operations, fostering open communication, and building relationships with key members of the company, Tate is able to align legal strategies with the business’s overall objectives effectively.

In representing insurance clients, Tate works diligently to analyze insurance policies, investigate claims, and develop solid defense strategies to protect the interests of clients. Whether it’s a slip and fall incident, property damage claim, or otherwise, he shields clients from potential liabilities and seeks favorable resolutions. Tate also reviews and drafts contracts and other legal documents for clients performing construction services and provides legal advice to those clients regarding potential disputes and claims.

Tate was born and raised in Shreveport, Louisiana. He fell in love with New Orleans in 2014 when he moved down for law school and has been here ever since. When Tate isn’t working hard to represent his clients, he enjoys trying out different New Orleans restaurants and festivals with his wife Lauren, spending time with their two dogs Mickey and Riley, and watching the local Louisiana college and professional football and basketball teams.
