Our APPROACH

From notice to savings.

Review & Planning

Most of our work starts before a notice arrives — projections, renditions, exemptions, market research, etc. Already have a value? We'll tell you what potential savings could be.

Protest

We file your protest before the deadline and request the appraisal district's full evidence file. Many cases settle informally, before a hearing is ever needed.

ARB Hearing

The Appraisal Review Board, or ARB, is the independent panel that hears your protest. We present the evidence and argue your case in front of it.

Appeal

If the ARB's value is still too high, the appeal continues through Estes & Banks, P.C. You have 60 days from receipt of the order to file an appeal.
