Cook county property tax assessment appeals attorney?

Does anyone know a good attorney to handle a residential cook county (illinois) property tax assessment appeal?

Don't pay an attorney!!!

You can do it yourself! It's easy. All you need to do is send in info on similar properties. Get their website off of their notification to you. You can enter anyone's house address.

All you need to do is find simiar properties to yours in your immediate area.
Right down the addresses.
Go to their website.
One at a time ...enter the addresses.
They will give you the code to enter.
Enter the code....the property will pop up.
Compare it to yours. [do yours first and print it out].
If their property is similar to yours....same lot size, same number of stories, etc. and they pay less taxes. Print it out.
I believe now they only ask for three comparisons.
They used to ask for five. Double check that on your notice.

If you know of any City Workers that live on your block, or neighboring block....run their properties....even if a larger house than yours. Theirs for some reason is always lower. Use it as a comparison if is lower.

[for example.....my immediate neighbor retired as a City Electrician Supervisor. We have the EXACT same buildings Two story brick. His was listed as a two story FRAME. He also had central air and rented out the basement. He paid $800.00 a year less than I did. I printed his out and used it for a comparison.]

I have five properties. I did it all myself and won four out of the five appeals.
If you don't have a computer, go to the public library and have them help you.

Please!! Don't give away more of your money to some attorney who will do the same thing you can do.

Good luck.!!
