Law Office Of Scott N Tisevich, Esq

The Law Office of Scott N. Tisevich has been helping Nevada property owners reduce their tax burdens for over two decades. Scott brings extensive experience in both tax law and property valuation, making him uniquely qualified to challenge unfair assessments. His background includes working with commercial developers, residential homeowners, and investment property managers throughout the Reno-Tahoe region. What sets this practice apart is Scott's hands-on approach to each case. He personally reviews every property assessment and develops customized strategies based on local market conditions. Many clients have seen tax reductions of 15-30% after successful appeals. The firm handles everything from simple residential protests to complex commercial property disputes, always focusing on achieving measurable results for property owners.

Property tax appeal services cover both residential and commercial properties across Nevada. The firm handles formal assessment appeals, informal review meetings with assessors, and Board of Equalization hearings. Scott provides comprehensive market analysis comparing your property to similar sales and current market conditions. Commercial property tax consulting includes income approach valuations, cost approach analysis, and market comparisons for office buildings, retail centers, industrial properties, and multi-family complexes. The firm also handles personal property tax appeals for business equipment and fixtures. Residential services include homestead exemption applications, senior and veteran discount programs, and assessment error corrections. Scott reviews property cards for accuracy, challenges inappropriate comparable sales, and argues for proper depreciation adjustments. The practice also provides ongoing monitoring services to catch assessment increases early and file timely appeals when needed.

Initial consultations include a thorough review of your property assessment and recent comparable sales data. Scott explains the appeal timeline and evaluates your chances of success before you commit to moving forward. Most residential cases start with informal meetings with the assessor's office. If informal negotiations don't achieve satisfactory results, the firm prepares formal appeals with detailed valuation reports and supporting documentation. Scott handles all hearing appearances and presents evidence to the Board of Equalization. Throughout the process, clients receive regular updates and copies of all correspondence. The entire appeal process typically takes 4-6 months from filing to final decision. Scott provides realistic expectations upfront and keeps clients informed of progress at each stage.

The practice serves all of Washoe County, including Reno, Sparks, and surrounding communities. Scott regularly handles cases in Carson City and has represented clients before assessment boards throughout northern Nevada. The firm's familiarity with local assessors and board procedures gives clients a significant advantage during appeals. While most work focuses on the Reno-Tahoe area, the firm accepts complex commercial cases statewide when the potential tax savings justify the additional travel and research required.
