Questions owners ask

Straight answers

Who handles my protest?

Licensed Texas attorneys. Your case is prepared and argued by an attorney, not a call center or a form-filler. When you call or email Fortress Tax Defense, you reach one of the owners of the firm, the attorney who will personally handle your case.

What does it cost?

Our fee is a share of what you save, at the protest or in court. If there is no reduction, there is no invoice. That has been the arrangement every season since 2020.

What happens after the Appraisal Review Board hearing?

If we believe there are still possible savings after the Appraisal Review Board protest, we can file in district court under the same fee arrangement. Most firms stop at the hearing. We don’t.

Which counties do you cover?

Every county in Texas, all 254 of them.

What types of property do you protest?

Residential, residential portfolios, multi-family, commercial, office, industrial, land, ranch, and business personal property (BPP).

I own several properties. Do I need a separate agreement for each?

No. One Appointment of Agent per property and one agreement cover the lot, in every county you own in. Fortress Tax Defense files in every county, argues every hearing, and takes the ones worth taking to district court.

How do I sign up?

Give us your details and your properties. We email you the Fortress Tax Defense agreement to sign electronically, together with the Appointment of Agent form, the State of Texas form that names Fortress Tax Defense as your agent for the protest. Sign both from your phone and our attorneys handle everything that follows.

Where can I see your results?

On this site. Each result shows the appraisal district’s notice value, the value after our protest, the value after litigation where a case went to court, and the reduction, county by county across Texas.
