How They Can Help

We offer complete property tax appeal services including assessment review, documentation preparation, and representation at administrative hearings. Our process begins with thorough analysis of your property's assessed value compared to recent sales, market conditions, and assessment methodology. We prepare comprehensive appeal packages that address valuation errors, assessment inequities, and procedural deficiencies. For commercial clients, we review income and expense data, challenge inappropriate capitalization rates, and identify assessment errors that inflate property values. We also handle property tax exemption applications, payment plan negotiations, and settlement discussions with assessors' offices. Our goal is achieving maximum tax relief while maintaining positive working relationships with local tax authorities that benefit our clients long-term.

What to Expect

Your case starts with a detailed consultation where we review your property tax situation and explain your options clearly. If we identify grounds for appeal, we'll outline our strategy and provide transparent fee information before proceeding. We then gather necessary documentation, analyze comparable properties, and prepare a compelling case for tax reduction. We handle all filing requirements and deadlines while keeping you informed of progress. Most appeals resolve through administrative review, but we're prepared to represent you at formal hearings when necessary. Throughout the process, you'll work directly with an experienced attorney who understands your case thoroughly.

Service Area

We serve property owners throughout the five boroughs of New York City with particular focus on Brooklyn, Queens, and Manhattan. Our practice includes properties in Westchester County and Nassau County for existing clients with multiple holdings. We're familiar with local assessment practices and maintain good working relationships with assessors' offices in our service areas.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you determine if my property assessment is too high?
We compare your assessment to recent comparable sales, analyze assessment methodology, and review property condition factors. We only recommend appeals when evidence supports potential for meaningful reduction.
What's your success rate for property tax appeals?
Our selective approach to case acceptance results in approximately 75% of appeals achieving some level of tax reduction. We focus on quality over quantity to maximize client outcomes.
How much involvement is required from me during the appeal process?
Once we begin, your involvement is minimal. We handle paperwork, deadlines, and communications with assessors. You may need to provide property access for inspections or attend hearings in some cases.
Can you help with properties outside New York City?
We handle properties in Westchester and Nassau Counties for existing clients but focus primarily on NYC properties where our expertise provides maximum benefit.
What happens if my appeal is unsuccessful?
With contingency pricing, you owe no fees for unsuccessful appeals. We can also discuss strategy for future appeal opportunities or explore other tax relief options.
How long do I have to file a property tax appeal?
Deadlines vary by borough and property type, but most NYC residential appeals must be filed by March 15th. It's important to act promptly once you receive assessment notices.
Do you offer payment plans for your fees?
For flat fee arrangements, we can discuss payment plans. Contingency cases only require payment after successful outcomes, making our services accessible without upfront costs.
What makes your approach different from larger property tax firms?
You work directly with an experienced attorney throughout your case rather than being handled by staff members. This personal attention often leads to better outcomes and client satisfaction.
