Profile

“It is a never-ending war. Government, with its insatiable appetite for increasing tax revenue, constantly searches for ways to raise the property tax valuations of taxpayers,” says John Brusniak Jr., who was named to Texas Super Lawyers®. This requires constant innovation, strategy and creativity on our part to ensure taxpayers are fully protected. I love the fight! I am blessed to have a team of the brightest property tax litigators and property valuation experts in Texas in my firm. This allows us to stay on the offense and make sure that our clients are fully protected from unfair tax appraisals.” Representing exempt organizations, agricultural enterprises and corporate clients, Brusniak|Blackwell PC prides itself in delivering first-class representation throughout the entire property tax appraisal process at competitive rates. The firm has experience representing a range of clients, from the Fortune 100 to regional and local taxpayers throughout Texas, including Exxon Mobil, King Ranch, Bell Helicopter-Textron and Coca-Cola Enterprises. A nationally known speaker and author on property taxation, Brusniak has been selected by his peers to chair the American Bar Association’s property tax committee and the entire tax section of the Texas Bar. In addition, he is president of the National Association of Property Tax Attorneys.
