More property owners choose O’Connor than any other tax consultant in Texas because:
- The staff at O’Connor has an in-depth understanding of the requirements for property tax reductions that will benefit our clients due to the millions of tax appeals conducted throughout Texas.

- O’Connor uses every avenue available to protest property taxes including informal hearings, ARB hearings, binding arbitration, SOAH (State Office of Administrative Hearing) and coordinating judicial appeals.
