About Freeman Tax Law

Freeman Tax Law is a Phoenix-based firm focused exclusively on tax matters, bringing serious legal depth to what is often treated as administrative work. The firm handles federal and state tax disputes, planning, and controversy — and within that, property tax appeals represent a meaningful part of the practice for Arizona clients dealing with overassessments on residential and commercial real estate. What sets Freeman Tax Law apart is the rigor they bring to valuation arguments. They don't just file forms and hope for the best. They build structured cases backed by market data, comparable sales, and, when needed, independent appraisal support. If you've been through an informal appeal and gotten nowhere, or if the dollar amount at stake justifies a more serious approach, Freeman Tax Law is the kind of firm you want in your corner.

How They Can Help

Freeman Tax Law's property tax practice covers the full range of assessment-related disputes for Arizona property owners. Services include initial assessment reviews, formal appeals to the Maricopa County Assessor, and representation before the Arizona State Board of Equalization and Tax Court of Arizona. The firm handles residential overassessments, commercial property valuation disputes, and industrial or special-use property cases where standard comparable sales data is harder to find. For commercial clients, they're comfortable working through income-approach valuations, expense analysis, and capitalization rate arguments that go beyond what a basic appeal filing addresses. Freeman Tax Law also advises on property tax implications in real estate transactions — flagging assessment exposure before a deal closes and helping buyers understand what they're inheriting in terms of future tax liability. For clients with portfolios across multiple properties, they provide coordinated review to identify the highest-value appeal opportunities rather than pursuing every property indiscriminately. All work is handled by attorneys, not paralegals or third-party consultants, which matters when cases move into formal hearing or litigation territory.

What to Expect

Freeman Tax Law begins every engagement with a no-obligation review of your current Notice of Value and recent tax history. They'll identify whether there's a viable case based on the gap between assessed value and supportable market value. If they recommend moving forward, they gather the assessor's records, pull comparable sales and market data, and develop a written valuation argument. For commercial properties, this often involves working with an appraiser to produce an independent opinion of value. Appeals are filed within Arizona's statutory deadlines, and the firm manages all correspondence with the assessor's office. Most cases settle at the informal review stage, but Freeman Tax Law is fully prepared to take a case through a formal hearing or to Tax Court if needed. Clients receive clear updates at every milestone and make the final call on any settlement offers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Freeman Tax Law right for a simple residential appeal?
It can be, especially if you've already tried the informal process and gotten an unsatisfying result. For straightforward cases with modest savings potential, they'll tell you honestly whether the economics make sense.
How do I know if my property is overassessed?
Compare your assessed full cash value to recent sales prices for similar properties nearby. If your assessed value is materially higher than what comparable homes are selling for, there's likely a case to be made.
What's the difference between full cash value and limited property value?
Full cash value is the assessor's estimate of market value. Limited property value is used to calculate your actual tax bill and increases are capped by statute, so the two numbers often diverge. Freeman Tax Law can explain which figure drives your tax liability and which is worth contesting.
Can Freeman Tax Law help if I've already missed the appeal deadline?
In some cases, procedural errors, late notices, or other grounds may allow a late appeal. It depends on the specifics, and the firm can advise on whether any options remain.
Do I need an independent appraisal to file an appeal?
Not always. For residential properties, comparable sales data is often sufficient. For commercial properties, an independent appraisal strengthens the case considerably and the firm can coordinate that as part of their service.
What happens at a formal hearing?
You present your valuation evidence to a hearing officer, and the assessor's office presents theirs. Having legal representation is a meaningful advantage at this stage, and Freeman Tax Law handles all of it on your behalf.
How much can I realistically save?
It varies widely depending on the degree of overassessment and the property type. Commercial properties with significant valuation disputes can see six-figure annual savings. Residential cases vary from a few hundred to several thousand dollars per year.
Does Freeman Tax Law handle appeals in counties other than Maricopa?
Yes, the firm handles Arizona property tax matters statewide, including before the State Board of Equalization and Tax Court, regardless of which county the property is in.
