Litigation & Arbitration - The Next Steps

Litigation (filing a lawsuit) or Binding Arbitration are the next steps in the appeal process after the ARB Hearing.

Litigation is the choice for properties whose appraised value is over $1,000,000, and whose true value is significantly below the value set by the ARB.  As a general rule, a reduction of $200,000 or greater in appraised value is required to make a lawsuit economically worthwhile.

We have had excellent success in assisting our clients with the litigation process and obtaining significant reductions in appraised values and taxes.  An overview of our experience follows.

Arbitration is available for Real Property (Residential or Commercial, but not BPP) whose appraised value is under $1,000,000.
