Cook County Property Tax Attorneys

Experienced Legal Counsel for Property Tax Matters

Aaron Fox Law represents homeowners, businesses, and real estate investors throughout Cook County in property tax appeals, assessment challenges, and related legal matters. We combine deep knowledge of the Cook County assessment system with a practical, results-driven approach.

Why Clients Choose Us

Focused practice. Property tax law is what we do — not a sideline to other work.

Local knowledge. We work within the Cook County system every day and know how it operates.

Contingency fees. Most appeals are handled on a contingency basis — no reduction, no fee.

Full-service. We handle appeals from the Assessor's Office through the Board of Review and PTAB.

Practice Areas

Our firm provides legal services related to Cook County property taxation, real estate transactions, and municipal compliance.

Residential Tax Appeals

We appeal residential property assessments for homeowners across every Cook County township. From single-family homes to condominiums, we analyze comparable sales data and challenge over-assessments at the Assessor's Office and Board of Review.

Commercial & Industrial Appeals

We represent owners of office buildings, retail properties, industrial facilities, and multi-family buildings in assessment appeals. Commercial properties assessed at the 25% level face outsized tax burdens when over-valued — we work to correct that.

Exemptions & Incentives

We help property owners apply for and maintain exemptions including the Homeowner Exemption, Senior Exemption, and Senior Freeze. For commercial properties, we advise on incentive classifications like the Class 6b, 7a, 7b, and 8 programs.

PTAB Appeals

When the Assessor or Board of Review doesn't resolve the issue, we take cases to the Illinois Property Tax Appeal Board (PTAB) for an independent state-level review of your assessment.

Real Estate Closings

We handle residential and commercial real estate closings throughout the Chicago metropolitan area. Our team manages title review, document preparation, and closing coordination to ensure a smooth transaction from contract to keys.

Municipal Compliance

We represent clients facing Chicago and Cook County municipal ordinance violations, including building code issues, zoning matters, and administrative hearings. We work to resolve violations efficiently and protect your property rights.

About the Firm

A Focused Practice Built on Results

Aaron Fox Law was founded to provide Cook County property owners with effective, accessible legal representation in property tax matters. Too many property owners — both residential and commercial — pay more than their fair share in property taxes simply because they don't challenge their assessments.

We understand how the Cook County Assessor's Office operates, how the triennial reassessment cycle impacts different parts of the county in different years, and what evidence the Board of Review weighs most heavily. That institutional knowledge translates directly into better outcomes for our clients.

Our office is located in Skokie, Illinois, and we serve clients throughout Cook County — from Chicago's neighborhoods to the north, south, and west suburbs.
