How They Can Help

Brusniak Law provides full-service property tax representation from initial assessment review through final resolution. Their residential services focus on homeowners facing assessment increases that don't align with actual market values or property conditions. They analyze comparable sales, review property characteristics for accuracy, and challenge assessments that fail to account for depreciation or neighborhood factors. For commercial clients, they handle complex valuation disputes involving retail centers, office buildings, industrial properties, and multi-family complexes. Their commercial expertise includes challenging income approach valuations, market approach inconsistencies, and cost approach overstatements. They also provide specialized services for unique properties like churches, medical facilities, and special-use buildings where standard assessment methods often miss the mark. Pre-appeal consultation services help property owners evaluate their options before committing to formal protests. They also offer ongoing assessment monitoring for clients who want to stay ahead of potential issues.

What to Expect

Your journey begins with a detailed case evaluation where they review your assessment notice and property details. They'll research comparable sales, analyze assessment methodologies, and determine the strength of your potential appeal. If they identify viable grounds for reduction, they'll explain their approach and fee structure clearly. Once engaged, they handle all aspects of your appeal. This includes filing necessary paperwork, conducting property inspections if needed, gathering market evidence, and preparing your case presentation. They communicate regularly about case progress and strategy decisions. Most cases settle through negotiation, but they're fully prepared for formal hearings when necessary to achieve optimal results.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you determine if my case is worth appealing?
They analyze your assessment against comparable sales, review your property's characteristics for accuracy, and evaluate recent market trends. They only recommend appeals when they identify legitimate grounds for reduction and potential savings exceed their fees.
What makes a property tax appeal successful?
Successful appeals typically involve properties assessed above market value due to outdated information, incorrect property characteristics, or failure to account for depreciation factors. Strong comparable sales evidence and thorough documentation are crucial.
Can you help with properties outside Dallas County?
Yes, they handle cases in surrounding counties including Collin, Denton, and Tarrant. Their familiarity with different appraisal districts helps them adjust strategies based on each jurisdiction's specific practices and procedures.
What happens if my property value actually increased?
Real value increases don't necessarily mean your assessment is correct. They analyze whether the increase accurately reflects your property's market position and condition. Sometimes assessments rise faster than actual market values warrant.
How often should I consider appealing my property taxes?
Annual review is wise, but appeals should be based on legitimate grounds like assessment errors or market changes. They provide guidance on when appeals make financial sense versus when it's better to wait.
Do you handle homestead exemption issues?
While their primary focus is assessment appeals, they can advise on exemption matters and refer you to appropriate resources when exemption issues affect your overall property tax situation.
What evidence strengthens a property tax appeal?
Comparable sales data, property condition documentation, income and expense records for commercial properties, and professional appraisals all strengthen cases. They help gather and present evidence effectively.
Can appealing my taxes result in higher assessments?
While theoretically possible, it's extremely rare when working with experienced professionals who carefully evaluate cases before filing appeals. The potential benefits far outweigh this minimal risk in most situations.
