Property Tax Assessment

REPRESENTING CLIENTS THROUGHOUT ILLINOIS TO OBTAIN LONG-TERM PROPERTY TAX SAVINGS

Commercial, industrial and residential property taxpayers know that real estate tax matters can be quite daunting. It is difficult understanding assessment cycles, deadline schedules and knowing the impact a new assessment may have on subsequent tax bills. Every county has different filing procedures and deadlines. Failing to timely file could deprive you of your opportunity to appeal for a full year.

Golan Christie Taglia offers the expertise to help you address these challenges and strives to help you achieve the maximum possible tax savings. We maintain excellent working relationships with taxing officials and many legislators statewide.

• Annual Assessment Review — Is your property being assessed fairly and uniformly each year? We’ll review your assessments on an annual basis to help prevent any surprises.
• Tax Incentives & Abatements — We help you determine if your property is eligible for tax incentives or abatements. If it is, we’ll take you through each step necessary to qualify for these significant tax benefits.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

“I have been meaning to write you since receiving your message about your win for our client. Having also attended the hearing, I think your case preparation and arguments were great and I am so glad the outcome worked out so perfectly for him. Your arguments were very impressive and I was also impressed with your abilities. I am also relieved that we didn’t get homered by the Board of Review given the school district attorney’s very aggressive and attacking position, even with a compromise finding, since he is regularly before them on behalf of the district.

Yes, do please send me your literature and I will gladly convey it to anyone in need of property tax relief.”
