How They Can Help

We offer full-service property tax representation including assessment appeals, valuation disputes, and tax planning strategies. Our legal background gives us unique advantages in complex cases involving business properties, investment real estate, and disputed property classifications. We handle both formal appeals and informal negotiations with assessor offices. Our services extend beyond simple appeals to include property tax planning for real estate transactions, development projects, and business expansions. We work with commercial clients to structure acquisitions and improvements in ways that minimize future tax exposure. For residential clients, we provide comprehensive appeals services with particular expertise in luxury homes, historic properties, and unique architectural features that assessors often misunderstand.

What to Expect

Our process begins with a comprehensive legal and financial analysis of your property's assessment and tax situation. We examine not only current year issues but also identify patterns that might affect future assessments. Our preparation includes site inspections, market research, and collaboration with qualified appraisers when needed. We handle all aspects of the formal appeal process, from filing requirements to final hearings. Our attorneys are experienced in presenting complex valuation arguments and cross-examining assessor witnesses. We also explore settlement opportunities that can resolve disputes efficiently while preserving your appeal rights for future years.

Service Area

We represent clients throughout the Denver metropolitan area including Denver, Jefferson, Adams, and Boulder counties. Our practice focuses on Colorado's Front Range where we maintain current knowledge of local market conditions and assessor practices. We're particularly active in downtown Denver, Cherry Creek, and other high-value areas where assessment disputes are common.
