How They Can Help

Our services cover every aspect of property tax appeals and assessment challenges. We provide pre-assessment consulting to identify potential problems before they become expensive tax increases. Our residential services include challenging over-assessments, correcting property record errors, and securing proper exemptions for qualifying homeowners. Commercial property owners benefit from our detailed income and expense analysis for investment properties, obsolescence studies for older buildings, and market analysis for specialized property types. We handle business personal property appeals, challenging excessive valuations on equipment, inventory, and fixtures. Our team also assists with agricultural and forestry land valuations, helping rural property owners qualify for special-use assessments. We represent clients through the entire appeals process, from initial assessor meetings to Louisiana Tax Commission hearings.

What to Expect

Every case starts with our comprehensive property analysis reviewing your assessment against market data, property records, and comparable sales. We identify all potential grounds for appeal and estimate realistic tax savings. Our detailed case preparation includes market studies, property inspections, and expert valuation reports when needed. We file appeals with appropriate deadlines and handle all communication with assessor offices. Most cases resolve through informal negotiations, but we're fully prepared for formal hearings when necessary. We provide regular updates throughout the process and explain each step in plain English. Our goal is maximum tax reduction with minimum stress for you.

Service Area

We serve all parishes in the greater New Orleans area including Orleans, Jefferson, St. Bernard, Plaquemines, St. Charles, and St. John parishes. Our New Orleans location allows us to efficiently serve urban properties while our parish experience helps rural and suburban property owners. We understand how each parish's assessment practices differ and tailor our approach accordingly.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often do you win appeals?
Our success rate exceeds 85% for accepted cases because we carefully evaluate each situation before proceeding. We only pursue appeals where we believe meaningful reductions are achievable.
What makes you different from other property tax consultants?
We're attorneys who focus exclusively on property tax law. This specialization gives us deeper expertise and the ability to handle complex legal issues that general consultants cannot address.
How do you determine if my case is worth pursuing?
We analyze your assessment against recent sales data, property characteristics, and assessment patterns in your area. If potential savings exceed our fees with reasonable probability, we'll recommend proceeding.
Can you help if I've already tried to appeal on my own?
Yes, we often take over cases where initial self-representation was unsuccessful. Professional representation and proper documentation can make the difference in achieving meaningful reductions.
What's your typical turnaround time for cases?
Most residential appeals resolve within 1-3 months. Complex commercial cases may take 4-8 months, especially if formal hearings are required.
Do you handle appeals outside Orleans Parish?
Yes, we work throughout the greater New Orleans area including Jefferson, St. Bernard, and other surrounding parishes. Each parish has different procedures that we're familiar with.
Will my taxes definitely go down if you take my case?
While we have high success rates, no attorney can guarantee specific outcomes. We provide realistic expectations based on our analysis and experience with similar cases.
How much could I potentially save?
Savings vary widely based on the degree of over-assessment. We've achieved reductions from 10% to over 50% depending on individual circumstances and market conditions.
