Would You Benefit from a Judicial Appeal?
Depending on your property's value, pursuing a judicial-level property tax appeal may be beneficial. O'Connor manages the entire judicial appeal process, including covering legal representation, expert witness testimony, and all filing fees. You won’t pay anything unless your property taxes are reduced below the Appraisal Review Board (ARB) threshold through a judicial appeal.
By enrolling annually in the Property Tax Protection Program™, O'Connor will automatically escalate your appeal to the highest level if your property meets the program’s minimum criteria. Whether through binding arbitration or judicial appeal, O'Connor handles every step and covers all associated costs. If there’s no tax reduction below the ARB value, you owe nothing.
