Homeowners May Be Paying Too Much in Real Estate Taxes
You will receive your TRIM Notice (Property Value and Real Estate Taxes/Taxation) from the Property Appraiser's Office. If the Property Appraiser has over assessed your real estate, you may be paying too much in real estate taxes.
Pay particular attention to the Assessed Value of your propertyit will be called the Just Value on your TRIM notice. If it is your primary residence, it will be called the Save our Home (SOH) Assessed Value. The deadline for filing will be on the TRIM Notice.

This can bring about incorrect property tax determinations and a host of complications for the property owner. Our attorneys have intricate knowledge of the valuation and taxation processincluding property tax appeals and defending tax property assessments, and will help clients with their petitions. Often, we can achieve the results our client's desire through negotiation or through active participation before the Value Adjustment Board; but, when litigation is necessary we have been both creative and effective.
