Would You Benefit from a Judicial Appeal?
You could find it advantageous to take your property tax appeal all the way to the court appeal stage, depending on the value of the 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 Appraisal Review Board (ARB) threshold, you don't have to pay anything. Participate in the Property Tax Protection Program™, and every year O'Connor will file an appeal to the greatest level of practicality for your account. O'Connor will oversee the binding arbitration or court appeal for properties that satisfy the 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.
