Services
How They Can Help
The firm provides comprehensive property tax appeal services including initial assessment reviews, formal appeal filings, and representation before local boards of assessors. They conduct detailed property valuations using comparable sales data, income analysis, and cost approaches to build strong cases for tax reductions. For commercial properties, they analyze cap rates, vacancy factors, and market conditions to challenge overassessments. Additional services include tax abatement applications, exemption filings for qualified properties, and ongoing monitoring of annual assessments. The team also assists with personal property tax appeals for business equipment and fixtures. They work closely with appraisers and market analysts to ensure all evidence supports the client's position, preparing comprehensive appeal packages that address both legal and valuation issues.
What to Expect
The process begins with a free consultation to review your current assessment and determine appeal potential. The team analyzes recent sales data, property conditions, and assessment methodology to identify grounds for reduction. If they recommend proceeding, they'll prepare and file all necessary documentation with the appropriate taxing authority. Throughout the appeal process, Freeman Tax Law handles all communications with assessors and represents clients at hearings when required. They keep clients informed of progress and provide updates on expected timelines. The firm works on a contingency basis for most appeals, meaning fees are only collected when tax savings are achieved.
