PROPERTY TAX ASSESSMENT AND TAX COLLECTIONS

Our attorneys provide comprehensive advice and services to county tax assessors regarding general re-appraisals, property tax exemptions and exclusions, local board of equalization and review training, policies, procedures, and appeal processes, and representation before the North Carolina Property Tax Commission (including more than seventy appearances before such commission in the last seven years). 

We also provide comprehensive advice and services to local tax collectors and tax administrators regarding collection actions such as foreclosure, attachment, garnishment, and bankruptcy issues.  Our firm files more than one hundred property tax foreclosures per year.  We also provide guidance to collectors and administrators in developing rules and regulations relating to local tax ordinances, including tax regulations affected by the Covid-19 State of Emergency.

Representative clients include the Mecklenburg County Assessor, the Charlotte/Mecklenburg Tax Collector, the Pitt County Assessor, the Richmond County Tax Administrator, the Union County Tax Administrator and the Wake County Tax Administrator.
