As you are most likely aware, Nassau County has one of the highest property tax assessment rates in the state of New York. There are over 350,000 homes in Nassau County. Of these, less than half of the homeowners actually challenge their tax bills. The result is a disparity in property taxation, where you may be paying more in property taxes than your neighbor with an identical or similar house, for no good reason at all.
In addition to potentially lowering your property taxes, there are other advantages to challenging your tax assessment. For instance, if you are selling your home, you can tell prospective buyers that you have challenged the property tax assessment, making your property a more attractive buy at the price you’re seeking.
If you have not challenged your property tax assessment before, or a number of years have passed since your last property tax assessment grievance, we would like the opportunity to represent you. If you have used a non-attorney company to challenge your property tax assessment before, kindly consider switching and allowing The Property Tax Grievance Law Practice of Akiva Shapiro, Esq., PLLC to represent you.

We will work on your case on contingency, so that if we are unable to achieve a reduction of your property tax assessment you will owe nothing.
