BOLD ADVOCACY, REDEMPTIVE DEFENSE

Your dedicated Springfield, MO attorney for criminal cases and driving problems.

Souder Tate Attorney at Law

A Different Approach to Criminal Defense

My philosophy is rooted in a simple belief: everyone deserves a defense that sees the whole person, not just the charge. My experience, particularly my work with treatment courts since 2009, showed me that the most important question is often the one the system forgets to ask: ‘Why did this happen?’

Understanding the connection between your story, past trauma, and the challenges you face today is the key. This is why my approach is tailored to you, built on empathy, and passionately focused on achieving a better, redemptive outcome for your life.

Client Testimonials

"I can honestly say he is the best attorney I have watched practice in a courtroom... he is also a kind man who cares about his clients, their families, and people in general. "
Jessica
"I couldn't be happier with the representation that I received. Mr. Tate is very knowledgeable in the workings of the Missouri Court system and the law."
Ron
"Best lawyer in town. I was on probation and caught another charge so I hired Souder Tate and he got my probation extended. I was looking at 15 years in prison."
