Services
How They Can Help
We provide comprehensive property tax consulting including assessment analysis, protest preparation, and hearing representation. Our residential services cover homestead exemptions, senior and disability discounts, and market value challenges for over-assessed properties. We also handle inheritance-related assessment issues and property tax implications of ownership transfers. For commercial clients, we conduct detailed income and expense analysis, prepare cost approach valuations, and challenge inappropriate assessment methodologies. Our business law background helps us understand the tax implications of property acquisitions, developments, and dispositions. We also assist with special valuations for properties undergoing significant changes like renovations, conversions, or economic obsolescence. Tax court litigation services are available when administrative appeals don't achieve adequate relief.
What to Expect
We begin with a comprehensive evaluation of your property and tax situation, analyzing both current assessments and historical trends. This initial review helps us identify the strongest arguments for your appeal and estimate potential savings. We gather all necessary supporting documentation including market data, property information, and relevant legal considerations. Once we file your protest, we handle all communication with the appraisal district and prepare detailed evidence presentations. Most clients don't need to attend hearings, but we keep you informed throughout the process. We also advise on timing strategies and long-term tax planning to prevent future over-assessments.
Service Area
We primarily serve Harris County including Houston, Spring, Katy, Sugar Land, Cypress, and The Woodlands. Our central Houston location provides easy access to appraisal district offices and courts. We also handle select commercial cases in adjacent counties including Fort Bend, Montgomery, and Brazoria. Our focus on the greater Houston area allows us to maintain detailed knowledge of local market conditions and assessment practices that benefit our clients.
