Fabian Law, PLLC

Fabian Law, PLLC has built a focused practice in Phoenix around two closely related areas: tax law and estate planning. Their 5.0 rating is a strong signal that clients consistently leave satisfied, which usually comes from attorneys who are clear about scope, honest about outcomes, and responsive when questions come up. The firm works with homeowners, investors, and business property owners across Maricopa County who believe their assessments don't reflect actual market value and want an attorney to build a proper challenge, not just file paperwork. The overlap between tax law and estate planning is more significant than it might seem for property owners. Inherited properties, trust-held real estate, and ownership transfers all carry property tax implications that are easy to miss without coordinated legal advice. Fabian Law's dual focus means clients dealing with estate-connected real estate can get both pieces handled together, which saves time and reduces the risk of gaps in planning. For clients with simpler situations, the firm is equally capable of handling a straightforward residential appeal.

Fabian Law, PLLC handles property tax appeals from initial assessment review through final resolution, whether that's an informal settlement with the assessor's office, a Board of Equalization ruling, or further action in Arizona Tax Court. For residential clients, the firm reviews Maricopa County assessment notices and compares the county's valuation against recent sales of comparable properties. Arizona's residential assessments are based on full cash value, and errors in square footage, property condition, or comparable selection are common enough that a review is frequently worthwhile. The attorney handles the full process from petition filing through hearing representation. Commercial clients present more varied situations. Income-producing properties require financial analysis, cap rate comparisons, and often expert testimony at formal hearings. Owner-occupied commercial properties typically involve cost-approach disputes where replacement value estimates are the central issue. The firm has experience across property types including office, retail, industrial, and multifamily. For estate planning clients who also own real estate, Fabian Law advises on the property tax consequences of various ownership structures, including how family trusts, LLCs, and ownership transfers interact with Arizona's assessment practices. That integrated advice is genuinely valuable for clients managing properties that are connected to estate or succession planning.

Fabian Law starts every property tax engagement with a consultation to review your assessment notice and understand your property's characteristics. For estate-connected properties, that conversation also touches on ownership structure and how it affects your appeal options. Once the firm determines a viable challenge exists, they gather the necessary evidence, including comparable sales, prior assessment history, and in some cases financial records for income-producing properties. Arizona's appeal deadlines are strict, and the firm tracks them carefully to make sure nothing is missed. After filing, the assessor's office has an opportunity to respond and often opens informal discussions about a potential settlement. Many cases resolve at this stage without a formal hearing. When they don't, the firm prepares the evidentiary record and attends the Board of Equalization hearing. For cases with significant tax at stake, appeal to the Arizona Tax Court is an option if the Board's ruling is unsatisfactory. Fabian Law will give a candid assessment of whether that additional step is financially justified before recommending it.

Fabian Law, PLLC serves clients throughout the Phoenix metro and Maricopa County, including properties in Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe, Mesa, Glendale, and surrounding communities. Estate planning clients who hold real estate in multiple counties can also be advised on property tax implications across Arizona jurisdictions. The firm handles remote consultations for clients who prefer not to come into the Phoenix office.
