FMC represents clients at every level of the assessment process. In Illinois, the tax
appeal process begins with the filing of a complaint at the local or county Assessor's
office. If the result from the Assessor is insufficient, we then file a complaint at the
Board Of Review, where we are entitled to a hearing on our case.
After the Board Of Review has made a final decision on our complaint, the value of the property is certified for purposes of that year’s tax bill. Although the value is set, upon payment of that year's taxes, we may proceed further by filing either a specific objection lawsuit in the county circuit court, or by filing a complaint at the Property Tax Appeal Board. Relief obtained from either venue is in the form of a partial refund of taxes paid for that year. |
