Do NOT trust Appleton Chase Cohen & London to represent you in a residential tax appeal...they are a SCAM...a BAIT & SWITCH! They led us to believe that we were paying too much in real estate taxes and even set up a court date for our tax appeal, which we paid for (and have not been refunded for). We had to contact them to find a real estate appraiser to appraise our property and were told that they were too busy. Days before the court date we contacted Appleton Chase Cohen & London because we didnt have a property appraisal yet and were told that the court date would be cancelled because there would be no tax savings for us...we were then told they only use averages (not actuals) when they send out letters to try to hook you in as a client. What a waste of time and money.

Extremely satisfied with the results we received from Appleton Chase Cohen & London with reducing our property tax! Thank you for your professional representation on our behalf.

Cannot thank them enough! We got a letter in the mail, and at forst was a little skeptical. We thought it was to good to be true. However, we moved forward (you really have little to lose). We appealed our tax rate with Appleton and won! They saved us $2000 per year and it only cost $1000 of the forst year of savings. Highly recommend!

Had a wonderful...and financially beneficial.....experience working with the folks at Appleton Chase.....very professional and timely in their work and the responses to our questions.....very, very satisfied

Excellent! They saved us a lot of money on our property taxes. I would highly recommend them.

Did what they said they would do. We are happy with the result. They were able to do the job even with covid hurdles.

This firm helped me lower my taxes after I had exhausted all options. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking at why do I pay such high local taxes.

Basically a hands-off experience. ACCL did all the leg work and saved me about $1,500/year in taxes. There is really nothing to lose.

Excellent service. Would highly recommend.

We received correspondence in the mail relative to representing us for a tax assessment appeal. After looking into it, we decided to proceed. We received regular communications through the process. Very little was needed from us, and in the end, we wound up with an annual reduction of nearly $3,000. Well worth it!

We have used Appleton Chase & Cohen for two real estate tax appeals (2012 and 2019). Both were successful. In both cases the service was provided efficiently with a minimum of involvement by us. The firm handled our matter in a very professional manner. We highly recommend Appleton Chase Cohen & London to anyone seeking to reduce their property tax burden.

We built a custom home in Chester County in 2017. The taxes were overstated and based on the build, rather than market value. I attempted to appeal the taxes last year in my own and was turned down by the board. This year, we hired Appleton Chase and they successfully reduced our taxes $1500.00! Well worth the fee and very easy to deal with. I highly recommend!

Great experience, accl was responsive and easy to work with. These guys kept me up to date on the entire appeal process which I appreciated. All communication by phone and email so it was simple to make time for this. In the end we did have our tax assessment reduced by nice amount. Over time worth the cost

I received a notification in the email that they could lower my taxes which I am paying about 11.8K a year. After calling them were polite and professional and after reviewing my taxes said I had a case and the process began which included getting an Appraisal ($450), court date (covered by Appleton Chase) and then got notification that may taxes would be reduced by $1,515 (13%) for the 2020 calendar year. To cover their fees they take 1/2 of the 1st year savings which seems fair. So for a single phone call within about a month my taxes were reduced and I benefit with year over year savings! Thank You!

Wasnt sure if it was worth appealing the taxes for my condo in Wayne. Appleton was able to get the valuation reduced, saving me $3,300 in annual taxes. Very happy with the service I received.

The process could not have been easier. Yes, there are two up front fees, An appraisal fee, and a court fee. But when they saved us $4,000.00 in taxes, the fees were very small by comparison. They were always available to take my phone calls. The appraiser that they used was professional and used his photography skills to best showcase our desire to lower our property taxes. Additionally the Appraisers work provided us with a copy of a very extensive workup with all photos that could be used at any time to list the property for resale.

My wife and I used the services of Appleton Chase Cohen & London this year after being contacted by them by mail. The process was easy to understand and execute, and ACCL ended up saving us @ $3000.00/year on our taxes. I highly recommend the service if you feel your property taxes are too high.

This firm did an amazing job for us. Our annual taxes have been reduced by $2,000, and all we had to do was meet with the firm’s appraiser and sign a few forms. Our out of pocket costs were less than $700 - for filing fees and the appraisal - a small price to pay for our result, which we will enjoy for years. Our only mistake was not hiring the firm sooner.

Worked with ACCL on appealing my county tax assessment after receiving a letter from them in the mail. After a home assessment visit, they setup and took care of the county hearing. My home assessment was reduced by 12%. I am very happy with the result.

We had received a letter from them and thought, why not? Our neighbors thought the prior owners had already gone through this, but Appleton was able to save us about another $3000 in property taxes. The process involved very little effort on our side. I’m definitely glad we went through the process.

Worked with them recently in attempt to reduce my property taxes. Very professional service was provided and, although it took a number of months to complete, they were successful to the tune of $$$$ of dollars. Theyve got this process down to a tee, and Id by happy to work with them in the future.

At the recommendation of my neighbor, I used ACCL services for reassessing my property taxes. The team very professional, communication was excellent, and above all, they were very successful in securing a very large reduction in my taxes, much higher than I had anticipated. I can only highly recommend them.

ACCL is an amazing team! They are experienced, professional, and extremely prepared when they go before the board to get your taxes lowered. The best part is the fact that they win! If you want to hire an attorney and walk away feeling that you found the perfect one, then ACCL is the one you want!

The process was easy, with little intervention on my part. Taxes were lowered significantly! I highly recommend Appleton Chase Cohen & London.

Very happy with the reduction in taxes we received. The process was easy. ACCL staff managed everything. No need for personal appearances at court; they acted as surrogates which was a big relief.

When my husband and I thought about applying for a property tax reduction we did not know where to start. Once I was in contact with ACCL all my questions/concerns were addressed. The firm took care of everything. Yes, I did have to have my home reappraised. However, the firm contacted an appraiser who then reached out to me. I just had to be available for the appraiser to tour my property. ACCL took care of filing the tax appeal papers with the court and represented us at the hearing. We did not have to appear. What could be easier? And yes, our assessment was lowered.

We used ACCL for our tax assessment appeal and were awarded a 20% reduction on our taxes. The process was professional and informative. There was an upfront cost of a professional appraisal and filing fee.The final cost to ACCL was based on 50% of our first year of tax reduction savings. Overall, we had a good experience and outcome using this firm.

Their service was excellent. They saved me exactly what they quoted on my real estate taxes!

Got a letter in the mail called and they took care of everything. Saved me more then I thought. Very happy

Highly professional and experienced advocates. Great customer service. Very easy to work with.

I received a letter from this law firm in April 2018 saying they could save me money by appealing my real estate assessment and that the fee would be 50% of the savings in the first year. I contacted them to begin the process and was told I needed to get an appraisal done (at a cost of $425) which I agreed to. I then paid $25 for the appeal process for a lawyer to file the paperwork. In November 2018, I received a letter from the Chester County Board of Appeals that my appeal had been dismissed because of a failure to appear which the lawyer was supposed to do on my behalf. After calling ACCL multiple times, I was told to contact the lawyer they subcontracted this out to and he couldnt give a valid reason for the letter repeatedly saying he was there. About 6 months later, ACCL finally told me that he showed up late and they would file a claim and it could take up to 5 YEARS!I received another letter from them in April 2019 and when I spoke to them they agreed to process the appeal again in 2019. This time I received a letter from the Chester County Board of Appeals in November 2019 saying that As a result of your decision to withdraw the appeal...your appeal has been dismissed. Shockingly, I never wanted my appeal to be withdrawn. So I spoke to the same lady at ACCL and she told me she wanted to withdraw the claim from 2018, not 2019, and that she would work to correct it and get back to me. Not surprisingly, I never heard back from them.I tried to call the office again today and was told she would have to get someone to call me back because she was working on a project and couldnt get into her computer to look it up. WHAT?!? Besides answering the phone on speakerphone and being totally unprofessional, I couldnt believe it.There are some good reviews for this company, but definitely not one I can recommend.

Great service and was able to reduce my taxes about $2,900 a year. I had to spend about $400 out of pocket, but ended up saving close to $3,000 a year for the next couple of years.

I received a letter in the mail a few months ago regarding that I may be paying $ 2,200.00 more for my taxes and they could help. As I was a little skeptical at first I decided to inquire and am sure glad I did. This was a streamline transaction as I really had to do nothing but get an appraisal. At the end of the day I saved over $ 2,200.00 on my taxes annually. Greta job!Jennifer and Dario

Great experience。 Highly recommend ACCL for property tax appeal services.

My tax bill seemed to be too high compared to other homes in our township. After receiving a solicitation letter from ACCL, based on helping other homeowners in my development, I contacted them to discuss my bill. ACCL handled the rest! After reviewing to see if I had a valid case for appeal, ACCL moved forward with the appraisal, which was quick and easy, and ACCL handled the hearing for the appeal. I didnt even have to go. I got a reduction of $1800! My agreement was to pay 50% of the first year savings, the appraisal and the filing fee. I have already recommended to other neighbors in my development.

We received information in the mail from ACCL regarding the potential to lower our property taxes in Montgomery County. I was frustrated year after year of seeing newly built homes in our township selling for $200-300K more than ours was worth, while paying less in property taxes than we were. We decided to reach out to ACCL and then move forward with an appeal.The appraisers and everyone we interacted with at ACCL were very professional. Their office kept us informed of deadlines and the schedule for the appeal hearing. All told, our taxes were reduced by about 14%, or $1,500 about a month ago.

Received a letter from this place and thought Id look into it. Checked out the address which showed up as a UPS store. Gave them a call and told them about it. They told me to look at the Google reviews which are all from the same time frame. Pass!!

ACCL handled my Tax appeal and got me a reduction in the taxes. The entire team did a job

We realized a very nice savings.

Lowered my tax burden significantly!

They are a scam that should be reported to the attorney general. They required me to give a $50 non refundable reservation for court fees for multiple properties before they gave me my free property tax evaluation. Then they come back and say that it would not be a wise choice to move forward with a property tax appeal. So they pocket or are in collusion with the court system for $100 from me for nothing. This is thievery or at the least bait and switch performed by a law firm in conjunction with our legal system. It is no wonder people are evolving to not trust either. I had sent in for a third property and no reply back from them...great service! I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS LAW FIRM TO ANYONE.
