Louisville Property Tax Assessment Appeals

Navigating property tax assessments in Louisville can be frustrating, especially when you believe your property has been overvalued. Thankfully, Kentucky law allows property owners to challenge their tax assessments, which can significantly affect their annual tax bills and their property’s long-term value. However, pursuing a successful appeal requires a careful understanding of local rules, deadlines and evidence requirements.

At Mockensturm, Ltd., we are more than a law firm – we are your legal partners in protecting your financial well-being. With a team that includes both experienced attorneys and CPAs, we bring knowledgeable legal insight into the property tax appeal process.

Know How Property Tax Appeal Process Works

The Jefferson County PVA assessment process involves several key legal requirements:

  • Property owners must file their appeal within the designated window after receiving their assessment notice, typically during a specific period in May
  • Appeals require substantial evidence demonstrating the property’s actual fair market value through comparable sales data and other supporting documentation.
  • The appeals process involves multiple stages, from informal conferences to formal hearings before the Local Board of Assessment Appeals.

Simply disagreeing with your assessment is not enough; successful appeals demand a strategic approach backed by solid financial analysis and legal arguments. Our legal and accounting teams develop comprehensive evidence packages that present your case effectively to assessment authorities.
