Sonja Tate Lawyer Reviews & Ratings - Augusta

I was born in Forrest City, Arkansas, but spent several years moving around the Southeast, spending time in Lexington and Charleston, before my family finally settled in Tega Cay, South Carolina, where I graduated from Fort Mill High School in Fort Mill, South Carolina in 1989.  From there, I traveled to Athens, Georgia to attend the University of Georgia, where I received my undergraduate and law degrees in 1993 and 1996, respectively.. After graduating from law school, I moved to Thomson, Georgia, where I clerked for the Honorable E. Purnell Davis and Roger W. Dunaway, Jr. of the Toombs Judicial Circuit.  I have been with Fulcher Hagler LLP since August of 1999, becoming a partner in 2004.  In that time, I have developed a varied litigation practice, trying cases involving personal injury, insurance coverage, construction defects, contract disputes, fraud, premises liability, contested probate matters and domestic disputes across Georgia and South Carolina.  I’m also a strong advocate of alternative dispute resolution.. I have been appointed a Community Member of the Georgia Regents University Conflict of Interest Panel and am also an active member of The Church of the Most Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Augusta, GA. In the past, I have served as President of the Toombs Circuit Bar Association and on the Executive Board of the Young Lawyers of Augusta. Currently, I am a member of the Defense Research Institute, the Georgia Defense Lawyers Association and the Augusta Bar Association. Other activities include hiking, biking and visiting our National Parks.
