How They Can Help

The Rosacci Law Firm handles the full spectrum of property tax work in Arizona. On the residential side, they review single-family homes, condos, and small investment properties for assessment errors, then file the appropriate protest with the Maricopa County Assessor's Office or the Arizona State Board of Equalization. For commercial clients, the scope gets bigger. They work with retail centers, office buildings, industrial sites, and multi-family developments, often engaging independent appraisers to build a stronger valuation argument. Beyond appeals, the firm advises clients on exemptions they might be missing, including qualifying agricultural classifications and primary residence designations that can meaningfully reduce a tax bill. They also handle cases involving back-assessment disputes and valuation corrections for prior tax years. If a client has received a Notice of Valuation and isn't sure what it means or what to do next, the firm offers an initial review so you understand your options before any deadlines pass. Their bankruptcy and personal injury practices occasionally intersect with tax matters too, giving them a broader legal perspective that pure tax consultants don't always have.

What to Expect

The process starts with a free review of your current assessed value and the county's comparable sales data. If the firm identifies a viable basis for appeal, they'll outline what they expect to achieve and what the process looks like from there. Once you engage them, they pull the full property record, request the assessor's work file, and analyze whether the valuation methodology holds up. For residential cases this might take a few weeks. Commercial cases often require a formal appraisal, which they coordinate. They file the protest on your behalf, handle all communications with the assessor, and represent you at any hearings. If the county's offer isn't acceptable, they'll advise on whether to escalate to the State Board of Equalization or pursue Tax Court. You don't have to manage the timeline or paperwork. They do.

Service Area

The Rosacci Law Firm primarily serves clients throughout Maricopa County, including Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, Glendale, and Peoria. They also take cases in Pinal County and can advise clients statewide on Arizona property tax law questions. If you're not sure whether your property falls within their service area, a quick call will clarify it.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my property is over-assessed?
Compare your assessed value to recent sales of similar nearby properties. If your assessed value is higher than what comparable homes or buildings have sold for, you likely have grounds to appeal. The firm can run this comparison for free.
What's the deadline to appeal my Maricopa County assessment?
You generally have 60 days from the mailing date on your Notice of Valuation to file a petition with the assessor's office. This deadline is firm, so don't wait.
Do I need an appraisal to appeal?
For residential cases, a formal appraisal isn't always required. For commercial properties, an independent appraisal typically strengthens the case significantly and may be necessary for higher-value disputes.
What happens if the assessor denies my appeal?
You can escalate to the Arizona State Board of Equalization or, depending on your property type, file directly in Arizona Tax Court. The firm handles both paths.
How much can I realistically save?
It depends on how far off the current assessment is. Residential savings often range from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars per year. Commercial reductions can be much larger.
Is there a fee if you don't win?
On contingency cases, no. You only pay if the firm secures a reduction. The specific fee structure is discussed before you sign anything.
Can you appeal assessments for prior years?
In some cases, yes. Arizona allows corrections for certain back-year errors, which can result in refunds or credits. The firm can review whether prior years are still actionable for your property.
What if I just bought the property and the assessed value seems high?
A recent purchase price is actually strong evidence in an appeal. If the county's assessed value is higher than what you paid in an arm's-length transaction, that's a concrete data point worth using.
