Butler Snow

Butler Snow's Austin office provides comprehensive property tax consulting services to help clients navigate the complex world of property assessments and appeals. Our team combines legal expertise with deep knowledge of Texas property tax law to deliver results for both individual homeowners and large commercial property owners. We understand that property taxes represent a significant expense for most property owners. Our systematic approach to assessment review and appeal preparation has helped clients save substantial amounts on their annual tax bills. We work with properties of all types and sizes, from residential homes to large commercial complexes, bringing the same level of professional attention to each case.

Our property tax practice covers the full spectrum of assessment and appeal services. We conduct detailed property assessments to identify overvaluations and prepare comprehensive appeals with supporting market data and expert analysis. Our team handles all communications with appraisal districts and represents clients at hearings when necessary. For commercial clients, we provide ongoing tax monitoring and planning services. This includes annual assessment reviews, market analysis, and strategic planning to minimize future tax liability. We work closely with property managers, real estate professionals, and business owners to develop comprehensive tax strategies. Our services extend to complex valuation issues involving special-use properties, contaminated sites, and properties affected by economic obsolescence or functional issues that impact value.

We begin every engagement with a comprehensive property analysis and assessment review. This includes examining your property's assessment history, current market conditions, and comparable sales data. We identify specific grounds for appeal and provide a clear assessment of your case's potential for success. If we proceed with an appeal, we handle all aspects of the process from initial filing through final resolution. We prepare detailed evidence packages, coordinate with expert witnesses when needed, and represent you at hearings. Our team maintains regular communication throughout the process, providing updates on case progress and any developments that might affect your appeal. We work efficiently to meet all deadlines while building the strongest possible case for assessment reduction.

We represent property owners throughout Central Texas, with particular focus on Travis, Williamson, and surrounding counties. Our Austin office serves clients across the greater metropolitan area, including Cedar Park, Round Rock, Georgetown, and other growing communities. We have experience with assessment practices in multiple jurisdictions and can effectively represent clients who own properties in different counties or appraisal districts.
