PLANO TAX LITIGATION

Tax based on the value of real estate or personal property is referred to as ad valorem tax. Property taxes generally are imposed annually and are determined by a county assessor’s appraisal of real property. Local officials then set tax rates and collect taxes in accordance with a process governed by state law.

It is not unusual for property owners to disagree with an appraisal of a property’s value, dispute a tax assessment or find an error in an appraisal or tax record. As a property owner, you have rights and remedies for times when you believe:

  • an assessment is out of line with other comparable property,
  • an applicable exemption was denied,
  • a property was taxed by the wrong taxing unit,
  • an appraisal record shows the wrong owner,
  • an appraiser wrongly determines when land was taken out of agricultural or timber use,
  • other discrepancies exist.

At the law firm of The Law Offices of Roger Fuller, we represent property owners in reviewing and appealing real estate tax assessments in towns and communities throughout the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex, including Carrollton, Garland, Irving, Plano and Richardson.
