Frequently Asked Questions

What makes your firm different from general practice attorneys?
We focus exclusively on tax law, which means deeper expertise in property tax assessment methods, appeal procedures, and negotiation strategies. This specialization translates to better results for our clients.
How do you determine if my case is worth pursuing?
We analyze your assessment against market data, recent sales, and property conditions to estimate potential savings. We only take cases where we believe we can achieve meaningful reductions.
What's your success rate with property tax appeals?
While results vary by case, we achieve some level of tax reduction in approximately 85% of our appeals. Our selective case acceptance helps maintain this high success rate.
Can you help with properties outside Dallas County?
Yes, we handle appeals throughout North Texas including Tarrant, Collin, Denton, and other surrounding counties. We're familiar with procedures across multiple appraisal districts.
Do you work with property appraisers or other experts?
We collaborate with certified appraisers, engineers, and other specialists when cases require expert testimony or specialized valuation analysis, particularly for complex commercial properties.
What happens if the appraisal district doesn't agree to reduce my assessment?
We can pursue formal hearings before appraisal review boards and, if necessary, file suit in district court. Many cases settle favorably even after initial denials.
How do contingency fees work for property tax appeals?
You pay nothing upfront, and our fee is a percentage of your first-year tax savings only if we successfully reduce your assessment. No reduction means no fee.
Should I try to appeal my assessment myself before hiring an attorney?
While possible, self-representation often results in poor outcomes, especially for commercial properties. Professional representation significantly improves your chances of success and maximizes potential savings.
