How They Can Help

The firm handles both residential and commercial property tax appeals with emphasis on cases requiring legal expertise or formal representation. They provide thorough case evaluation including legal research on assessment methodologies, procedural compliance review, and identification of potential legal challenges to assessment practices or valuation approaches that may have been incorrectly applied. For commercial clients, they offer sophisticated legal analysis of complex valuation issues, challenges to assessment methodology, and representation in formal hearings where legal arguments and procedural knowledge can be decisive. They also handle appeals involving unique legal issues such as tax increment financing districts, special assessments, or properties with complicated ownership structures that create valuation challenges requiring legal resolution.

What to Expect

Their process begins with a legal and factual analysis of your case, examining both the assessment itself and the procedures used to arrive at the valuation. They research applicable laws and regulations to identify potential legal challenges beyond simple valuation disputes, which can provide additional avenues for relief. When formal proceedings are necessary, they provide full legal representation including witness preparation, evidence presentation, legal brief writing, and oral argument. Their courtroom experience allows them to effectively advocate for clients in formal settings where technical legal knowledge and presentation skills can make the difference between success and failure.

Service Area

The firm serves clients throughout Nebraska with particular focus on the Omaha metropolitan area and surrounding counties. Their legal practice allows them to handle cases statewide when legal issues or formal appeals require representation before state-level bodies like the Tax Equalization and Review Commission.

Frequently Asked Questions

When do I need legal representation for a property tax appeal?
Legal representation is most valuable for complex cases involving unique properties, procedural challenges, or when you suspect assessors haven't followed proper legal procedures. Simple valuation disputes may not require legal representation.
Can you handle appeals to state-level boards?
Yes, we regularly represent clients before the Nebraska Tax Equalization and Review Commission and can handle appeals through all levels of the state system.
What makes your approach different from other property tax consultants?
Our legal training allows us to identify procedural and legal issues beyond simple valuation disputes. We can challenge assessment methodology and provide formal legal representation when needed.
Do you offer contingency fee arrangements?
While we typically bill hourly, we may consider contingency arrangements for larger cases with clear potential for significant savings. Fee structure depends on case complexity and potential outcomes.
How do you determine if a case has legal merit beyond valuation issues?
We conduct thorough legal research examining assessment procedures, applicable statutes, and precedent cases to identify potential legal challenges that strengthen your position.
Can you help if I've already tried appealing on my own?
Yes, we can often identify legal arguments or procedural issues that weren't addressed in previous appeals, though timing requirements may limit options depending on your situation.
What types of properties benefit most from legal representation?
Commercial properties, unique or specialized properties, properties with legal complications, and cases involving large potential tax savings typically benefit most from legal representation.
How long do formal appeals typically take?
Formal proceedings can take 6-12 months or longer, especially if appeals proceed to state-level boards. We keep clients informed of progress and expected timelines throughout the process.
