How They Can Help

We provide full-service property tax representation including assessment appeals, informal reviews, formal hearings, and ongoing tax planning. Our real estate law background enables us to address assessment issues arising from ownership changes, property improvements, and development projects. We handle both residential and commercial properties with particular strength in cases involving legal complexities. Our services extend beyond basic appeals to include assessment methodology challenges, exemption applications, and coordination with estate planning strategies to minimize future tax exposure. We work closely with certified appraisers, engineers, and other professionals when technical expertise is needed. For business clients, we integrate property tax planning with overall tax strategy and can address multiple properties through coordinated approaches.

What to Expect

Our process integrates legal analysis with market valuation review to build comprehensive cases. We start by examining not just the assessment amount but also the legal basis for the valuation and compliance with assessment law. This thorough approach often reveals procedural or legal grounds for appeal that supplement market-based arguments. We prepare formal legal briefs supported by detailed market analysis and coordinate expert testimony when needed. Our attorneys personally present cases at hearings and are prepared to pursue appeals at higher levels if circumstances warrant. Throughout the process, we maintain detailed documentation and provide strategic advice on related real estate and tax planning matters.

Service Area

We serve Placer County with particular focus on Lincoln, Auburn, Rocklin, and Roseville areas. Our practice extends to Sacramento County for existing clients and complex commercial cases. Our deep knowledge of local real estate markets and development patterns in these growing communities provides valuable insight for assessment appeals.
