Mr. Tate took the time to listen to me and help me with my student loan situation. He was helpful with techniques to help with my children currently in college. Mr. Tate knows the student loan system and can provide the services and knowledge you need. I recommend him to help you take care of your student loans.

Awesome guy to work with on my school loans. Very forward and to the point on what needs to happen.. would absolutely recommend for your school loan needs.

While I have not engaged Mr. Tate’s legal services, I did have a brief complimentary phone consultation. I appreciate his direction and willingness to give advice and to listen. If I feel it is time for legal advice I will certainly engage Mr. Tate.

Didn't contact me in a timely manner. I have a Feeling that most people that have rated this practice are friends of the owners.

Just a public response , I only got a reply after I posted feedback online. I think that is bad ethics. I shouldn't have to post feedback to get a response.

So understanding and kept me up to date at all times. Would 100% recommend. I was so stressed when I got sued over student loans. He took care of everything. All the collection calls stopped, he took that stress away. I cannot thank him enough.

It Pays to Know the Rules
When it comes to student education loans it really pays to know the rules. However, that can be a difficult challenge because loan terms have changed over the years and often school administrators have not kept up with the details. Lawyer Stanley Tate who has worked in the area for many years clearly knows the rules, the legal case law and the intent of student loan programs.
As a professional advisor to students and former students dealing with often complex student loans, Mr. Tate provides the benefit of his deep knowledge and broad understanding to clients wishing to learn options available to lower monthly payments and ultimately pay off balances of student educational loans. In loan programs that have evolved in complexity, it is important to get good advice from a reliable source before, during, and after borrowing money to pay for one’s education. Our family knows from experience that Stanley Tate is an excellent source of that advice.

My student loan was taking a major toll on my life and Tate swooped in and saved the day! Very personable, easy to contact and work with, and sure to save you money! I highly recommend his services.

Helped me immensely.

With over $300,000 in loans looming over my head and no money in the bank, Tate Law was able to, proficiently and legally, work within the confines of federal loan regulations to make sure I didn't go into default by creating budget-friendly payments.

Very informative and professional. Helpful whether you use his services or not. I appreciate his help.

Good advice with timely consult.

I have been working with Mr. Tate since I have graduated dental school in 2014. He has assisted me with making my loan payments manageable. I have been able to complete a residency program, obtain a master's degree and start a business thanks to Mr. Tate's guidance. Often times people are burdened by their student loan debt and unable to pursue their dreams. Fortunately for me Mr. Tate provides a service that has helped prevent any missteps with managing my loans. I thank him for always having my back and for his wonderful advice over the years.

If you need help with a student loan situation, Tate is your guy. My only regret is that I didn't meet him sooner. From scheduling a consultation to completing the settlement, he made the process simple. Tate is an absolute professional - very competent but also friendly. He put me at ease in an otherwise very stressful and uncertain situation.

Tate set clear expectations up front and remained in regular communication throughout the process, which for me took several months. Everything he told me in our consultation that he anticipated would happen basically happened that way. He deals with these situations a lot and it shows. He managed to negotiate my settlement for even a little lower than he originally estimated (44.5%).

Don't get me wrong, the settlement amount was still a lot of money considering I'd already paid back the amount borrowed to begin with. That had nothing to do with Tate though. He helps you work through the REALITY of the situation. It doesn't mean the situation is pretty. If you weren't feeling trapped in a hole you can't climb your way out of, you probably wouldn't be considering his services, right? :)

I tried strategically defaulting (unsuccessfully) on my own in 2016. The lowest offer I ever received from the creditor was 67% of the balance. That was after months of regular phone calls, them calling my family, etc. It was awful. I strategically defaulted again in spring 2019 and after a couple of months of going at it alone again with no success, I found Tate's website.

It's exhausting talking to these folks, even once a week. They run through the same script over and over. At that early level of collections, you're not getting anywhere with them anyway. The process consumes your energy that is better spent on things that will actually produce a positive result in your life.

Within a couple of days of finding his website, I had a consultation and he'd outlined a plan moving forward. As soon as we had an agreement in place, he took over all communication with the creditors and they stopped calling me. This alone was such a relief. I really stopped thinking about it except when he updated me. Because he was so good about communicating, I sort of knew what time frames to expect.

People can try to go at this alone, but with near certainty most people would not be able to produce the same result as Tate. The fact that he's an attorney and you've hired him tells the creditors you're over it and doing something different. He is familiar with all of the creditors, their collection units and even many of the people in each unit.

I have no doubt that his representation 1) expedited the process, 2) improved the result, and 3) preserved my sanity and 4) gave me peace of mind about my future.

If you're realistic about your situation, then Tate can help you better than you can help yourself. It's really that simple. I hope this helps someone. I am so thankful I found him and he helped me resolve this issue that has weighed on me for so many years, despite trying to pay off the loans in good faith.

I can't say enough about Mr. Tate. He was able to get rid of massive student loans for both me and my brother by utilizing his vast knowledge of the system. Mr. Tate was always prompt in responding, extremely informative, genuinely kind and extremely caring. He took the lead on the entire process and always kept me informed and in the loop. Not to mention he is extremely reasonably priced given the services he provides. Thank you Mr. Tate!

I recently had an over the phone consultation with Mr. Tate because I was pretty much in the dark about what to do with my private student loan. He gave me the impression that he really didn’t want to help me because all he did was give me some advice (that I could have researched on my own) and talk over me. We discussed numbers without him really knowing my financial situation. I felt really judged when I told him what I could afford. He made it seem like my situation was hopeless.

I was personally impressed by the service and attention I received. I felt cared about and that my situation was in competent hands all the way through.

I have a friend who lost his job and was evicted, and has subsequently moved in with me til he can get back on his feet. He recently told me about his tax returns being offset, so I was looking into what he needs to do when I came across Tate's website. I am so very grateful for Mr. Tate's efforts in producing everything he has on the subject. It is extremely informative and well laid out.

Mr. Tate has also included many of the things that most lawyers tend to shy away from that are often the little tid-bits people need to know. i.e. telling us information that may or may not be true because it varies by a case to case basis. Giving probable, possible, rare, and unlikely outcomes; giving educated guesses about potential and likely time frames to expect (or at least hope) your case gets completed; etc. Many times, at least for me personally, having all of the knowledge and submitting every single piece of paperwork required doesn't give me the same peace of mind that having someone give me educated rough-guesses about the process of something completely foreign to me will give me. Even when I know they aren't promising me those things and I can't hold them to what they say.

He knows the system and how it works. He will get you taking the right steps, and save you money.

Stanley Tate, or just “Tate” as he’s called by many, was an absolute joy to work with. He was the consummate professional throughout the entire process of loan modification, taking the time to make sure I understood every step.

Real talk: If you’re even thinking of loan modification, contact Tate. You won’t regret if.

Working with Tate to resolve my student loan issues was a pleasure! Before I reached out to Tate I couldn't see a way out of the mountain of paperwork and regulations associated with my loans. From our first conversation until my consolidation was finalized I was always well informed and clear on the process and expected outcomes. I honestly don't have any negative feedback, my entire experience was professional, efficient and productive. I will absolutely recommend Tate's services to anyone in need of support with student loan services!

This attorney was very helpful and kept me informed and updated on what was going on every step of the way. He resolved my issue with my student loans. I would recommend him to anyone that is having an issue with them. Thanks for a job well done.

Tate helped me understand my situation and provided some great suggestions. Highly recommended.

I spoke with Stanley last week about my current situation. I used the online scheduling to set up a free consult....easy. He could not help me for various reasons out of his control, but still took the time go over everything. Much appreciated. Definitely worth a call if you are having student loan issues.

Tate Law is literally EVERYTHING and a cookie on top! The high degree of customer care, knowledge, accessibility and communication is just what I needed and eased my mind! Hire this guy RIGHT NOW if you need help and can accept realistic results/advice at a fair price!

I must say Mr. Tate is a man of his word. He did everything he said he would do. After years of living with this debt he was the only one that actually helped me.
He is very personable and easy to talk to. I would recommend him to anyone.
Thank you so much!

Though I have only had Mr. Tate do my initial loan analysis, I cannot recommend him enough. He was so prompt in getting back to me after I sent my request for help and did my review so quickly. I plan to use him moving forward to help me resolve my student loan issues. As an attorney myself, I find Mr. Tate to be professional, knowledgeable and thorough. If you are struggling to take control of your student loans call Mr. Tate! He has given me peace of mind and hope that I can finally manage and resolve my student loan issues!

Tate made the process of getting my student loans out of default easy to understand. He is super easy to talk, quick to respond, and a pleasure to work with.

Tate will tell you he is not a miracle worker, but he certainly has been for me. In short, I paid him to set me up on the lowest payment plan possible and to process any and all Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program paperwork. He has DELIVERED!!!! He got me on a payment plan that was a FOURTH of what I could have gotten just by calling (I know this because I tried). He has consistently been able to get me the lowest plan possible, which has allowed me to have a savings account, pay off debt, and do more than just survive. It has allowed me to LIVE. I am forever grateful. If you are a debating whether or not to hire him, DO IT.

Mr. Tate is knowledgeable, efficient and easy to work with. He helped me reduce my student loan payment and I highly recommend his services.

At first, I didn't even know lawyers like Stanley Tate existed who specialized in student loan debt. And by the time I met him through a colleague, I had LONG given up on the idea that I would ever get my loans out of default status or one day pay them off. I felt like I was serving a life sentence, and eventually just gave up....Until I met Tate.

During our initial consultation when he told me that he could help me consolidate my loans and get a repayment plan that I could actually afford, I'll admit I was a little skeptical. It sounded too good to be true because I had been living with student loan debt for YEARS. And dodging debt collectors for YEARS. It was so long that I couldn't even tell him how many student loans I had or how much I owed. Not to mention the IRS had LONG been offsetting my IRS refund, leaving my husband to have to file Injured Spouse year after year.

Our lives were on hold for YEARS because of my student loan debt and here Tate was not only offering us a way out, but doing ALL of the work. All I had to do was answer questions, and review and sign documents. No more stressing over debt collector phone calls or trying to get them to understand why I couldn't afford to pay the equivalent of a car note every month to get my loans caught up. Tate took care of everything!

For the first time in YEARS, I'm out of default status and my loans have been consolidated, with a repayment plan I can actually afford. But the best part is that a HUGE weight has been lifted from our family's finances. It's like my "life sentence" has been thrown out and I have God and Tate Esq to thank for that!

If your student loan debt feels like a "life sentence," pick up the phone and call Stanley Tate today! He's so helpful that even if you decide to try and go it alone, he can still point you in the right direction.

Got right to the point; understood and was knowledgeable, but didn't waste time trying to convince me of his value. He just demonstrated it.

I left the consultation confident with the decision to finally tackle my student loan debt, but I made an even better decision entrusting my path back to good standing with Stanley Tate.

Mr. Tate is nowhere near the stereotypical lawyer. He is knowledgeable, professional, experienced, empathetic and most importantly non-judgmental. Mr. Tate has a level of professional swagger that is unparalleled. While the process is very evasive, he walks you through each phase in a way that always you to have peace. No presence of an inflated ego, no sense of just being a paycheck. Leveraging his experience and relationships, he outlined plans A, B and C, with the main goal being my best interests in all and he delivered. Many thanks!!

Top notch lawyer!!!

Stanley is AWESOME. He is thorough and quick and I am so glad to work with him. Thanks Stanley for everything.

This was my first time filing for bankruptcy. And the process was easy. Mr. Tate was very nice. And I had all my information and paper work on time.

Stanley helped my wife and I with a very difficult case that had been going on for a number of years. Through persistence, diligence and effort Stanley worked out a settlement that was reasonable and affordable.

Very helpful and quick with responding.

Upon meeting Stanley through a friend he began advising us on some business decisions we were facing . On and on he went, and we were able to make a decision about our circumstances without ever hiring him. We would later hire him to read over some contracts for us and he delivered a response in 24 hours; complete with notes and a crash course in the sort of business we were entering. This kind of over delivering helped us to forge ahead in solid confidence. Stanley is awesome!

Mr. Tate was able to reduce my astronomically high student loan payments by almost 90%! He kept me informed throughout the entire process and was a pleasure to work with. I was never left in the dark about anything. I have already recommended him to all of my friends.

I have about $100,000.00 in Student Loans after going through Undergrad and Grad School at Webster University. I graduated with my MA in 2008. The economy collapsed in 2008, so good jobs were hard to come by. I ended up getting a $30,000.00/yr. job in 2009. After a few promotions I was able to work my way up to $43,000.00/yr. Then in 2015, I went through a divorce. After years of forbearance requests, etc… the loans started to become due and payable. With just 2 of the loans coming up first the monthly payments would have been over $850.00 each month! More than rent and more than health insurance. With each paycheck being about $1,100.00 after taxes and insurance, I wouldn't have been able to make ends meet. I was seriously considering breaking my lease and moving back in with my parents until I found Mr. Tate. We explored a BK option. Then he found a way to consolidate ALL of my student loans AND place me on an Income Based Repayment plan. With my level of income and 4 children, my monthly payments are $0.00! AND, I did not have to file Bankruptcy! I’ll be seeing him again next year to renew the IBR! He is a saint among men. Really saved me from the biggest burden of my life. I cannot thank him enough.

Mr Tate was extremely helpful in extremely diligent with my case. Everything was done in a quick and timely manner and he was very informative on things that I should do to better help my financial situation. I highly recommend this individual to handle any kind of financial issues that you may have also he takes care of student loans and other financial situations.

Mr. Tate is the king of simplify. He breaks down all the stuffy bs that we find so often in legal docs. If you want your issue resolved and an education on the issue in the process, he's your man. Thanks bro!

My experience with Tate was outstanding! After disclosing my latest frustrations with a private loan, he immediately provided useful and strong recommendations. Tate is a knowledgeable professional who will guide you directly to which action plan to take. After our consultation, he led me to feel confident in his capabilities which set my mind at ease. Don't hesitate to utilize his services - you won't regret it :)

Words cannot express the level of gratitude I have for your professional help in getting my student loan issues resolved. I tried to figure out ways to do the loan modification on my own, but the whole process seemed confusing and frustrating. I greatly appreciate your professionalism and excellent service!! I feel as though a huge weight has been lifted. I can honestly say, with complete confidence, that you did an outstanding job with handling my student loans.

Mr. Tate assisted me with getting my loans deferred until my legal career generates a steady income. The process was professional, quick and easy. He was very patient, answered all my questions, and for that I thank him.

Mr. Tate was very helpful and assured me that everything would be okay and that he guaranteed his services. He was very knowledgeable and answered any questions I had as quickly as possible. I would recommend his services to anyone and would definitely use him again if need be. He reassured my doubts and worries in a very difficult time .

A ray of HOPE for those devoured by student loan issues!
Mr. Tate is a pleasure to work with; quickly resolving my student loan issues; giving me my life back! His kindness, wisdom and laser focus during the process was deeply appreciated and respected!

Finding a good - dedicated student loan attorney is very difficult. Look no further!
