Would You Benefit from a Judicial Appeal?

You could gain by taking your property tax appeal all the way to the court appeal stage, depending on the value of your property. O'Connor oversees the administration of court appeals, including the hiring and payment of attorneys, expert witness reports, and filing costs. Unless your property taxes are lowered in a court appeal below the level of the Appraisal Review Board (ARB), you don't have to pay anything. If you sign up for O'Connor's Property Tax Protection Program™, your account will be appealed to the greatest level possible each year. O'Connor will handle the binding arbitration or court appeal for property that satisfies minimum requirements as part of the Property Tax Protection Program™. We pay for everything, even the costs of binding arbitration. Unless your taxes are lowered below the ARB threshold, you make no payment.
