Trusted Texas property tax expert and advocate
Mr. Saegert should be every Texas Property Taxpayers one and only contact. He offered his expertise and explained options I had, without any hesitation.

Quick, insightful, and effective property tax help
I called Michael for advice on an issue with property taxes that my husband and I were facing. First of all, he answered the phone so quickly and promptly began to look into the issue. He was extremely insightful and honest in the advice he gave us and led us to the correct individual to get the matter resolved. We had been chasing this problem for weeks with little help from all county offices we had contacted, and this phone call with Michael really made all the difference. We cannot thank you enough for your time!

Unbiased property tax guidance with actionable advice
I found Michael thru Google search. Called him for preliminary consultation regarding a property appraisal. He took the time to understand the history and the outcomes I am looking to accomplish. He clarified how the process works - cost vs. benefit. He gave me some pointers on how to move forward. I appreciate his unbiased advice and insights into the cost vs. benefits - which gave me clarity and direction for self-serving in case I wanted to further pursue the issue. Recommend reaching out to Michael if you are looking to find legal help for your property.

-Robby W.
Professional, attentive, and delivered excellent property tax savings
After getting zero results in 2019 from a big-box property tax protesting service, I hired Michael to dispute our 2020 property taxes. From the get-go, Michael was knowledgeable and responsive and an absolute professional. The process was extremely easy on my end, and the result was beyond outstanding. My property taxes were lowered significantly, and I only wish I had hired him last year when my results were unsatisfactory. In lieu of responding to one of the 25 big-box mailers you receive each spring, I highly recommend using Michael if you want personal attention to detail and subsequent fantastic results. I couldn’t be more pleased, and I have no doubt that you will feel the same way.

Honest, transparent consultation put my best interest first and advised against unnecessary legal fees
I had a great experience with Michael Saegert....he was honest, forthcoming, and his consultation helped tremendously. When we went through the particulars of my property tax case he determined that I'd get very little financial benefit from hiring legal representation. He could have taken the case, charged me a fee and been on his way, however he did the opposite. If you feel you have a property tax case, CALL MICHAEL FIRST.

Helpful, knowledgeable, and dedicated property tax guidance
I have had a property tax issue that seems unfair and has weighed on me over the past few months. I decided to call Mr. Saegert and greatly appreciate his willingness to discuss this issue and provide answers to questions I had about property taxes so promptly. He explained the homestead exemption based on the actual Texas Property Tax Code. Based on my discussion with him, he is clearly dedicated and genuinely cares about his work.

Knowledgeable, experienced, and highly effective at reducing property tax burdens.
I spoke with Mike this year regarding the pros and cons of doing a protest on the property tax values assessed on our home in Harris County. Mike has a great deal of experience dealing with the county and does a very good job of explaining how the county works. I would highly recommend him to help you with any property tax matters you might have, as well as someone to discuss how you might be able to reduce your tax bill.
- Molly S.
Exceptionally generous, responsive attorney who expertly guides through complex tax issues
After a recent relocation to Texas, I have found that the property tax system can be rather daunting… It isn't every day that you try to hire an attorney and they bless you with their time and expertise without charging a fee. I am greatly appreciative of Mr. Saegert’s quick response and his valuable time, and I am on the road to resolving my tax problem. 15/10 would recommend his services.

Caring, knowledgeable, and proactive trusted guidance through a stressful appraisal process
Received a very high appraisal value for my home and was quite a bit concerned while waiting to hear back for an appeal. Contacted Mike through email and he responded promptly asking for a bit more information from me. We got on the phone shortly after and he explained what was going on and told me what to look for and what to do. Mike even emailed the office for me and attached me in the email so I knew who to contact. It takes a bit of time for me to trust or like someone, but I can tell you just by the brief interactions I've had with Mike, you can tell he actually cares, is very knowledgeable, and is someone I would recommend if you need help.
- Bobby D.
