Fighting for Fair Assessments

Real Estate Tax Appeals

A white background with a few lines on it

Property taxes can be a significant financial burden for homeowners and businesses alike. Our firm specializes in real estate tax appeals, helping clients challenge unfair assessments and reduce their tax liability. We work with property owners to review assessments, identify discrepancies, and present compelling cases for tax reductions.

What We Do

Our real estate tax appeal services are designed to help clients lower their property taxes and save money.
Assessment Review
We review your property tax assessment to determine whether it accurately reflects the value of your property. If the assessment is too high, we help you challenge it through the appropriate legal channels.
Appraisal & Evidence Gathering
We work with professional appraisers and gather evidence to support your appeal. This may include comparable property values, market trends, and physical conditions of the property that affect its value.
Filing Appeals
We handle the entire appeals process, from preparing and filing the necessary paperwork to representing you at hearings. Our goal is to present a strong case for reducing your property tax burden.
Negotiating Settlements
In many cases, we can negotiate settlements with local tax authorities, securing a fairer assessment and reducing your tax liability without the need for a lengthy legal battle.
Appealing Denied Appeals
If your initial appeal is denied, we can take further legal action to challenge the decision and continue working to reduce your property taxes.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How do I know if my property tax assessment is too high?

    If your assessment seems significantly higher than similar properties in your area or if the value doesn't reflect the current market conditions, you may have grounds for an appeal.








  • What evidence is needed for a real estate tax appeal?

    Evidence typically includes recent appraisals, sales data for comparable properties, and any factors that negatively affect your property's value, such as structural issues or location-based drawbacks.









  • Can I appeal my property taxes every year?

    Yes, you can appeal your property taxes annually, provided you have a valid reason to believe the assessment is incorrect. Regularly reviewing your assessment helps ensure you're not overpaying.









  • How long does the appeals process take?

    The timeline varies by jurisdiction, but most appeals take several months to resolve. Our firm works to expedite the process and negotiate settlements where possible.
