Fees

BrookLex charges in two ways, depending on the file. We will tell you which applies before any work begins.

The standard

Hourly billing

Most files are billed hourly, which keeps costs predictable. You know the basis for every invoice.

The alternative

Contingency

Contingency fees are available for qualifying properties, where our fee is a share of the tax savings we achieve. We will confirm whether your file qualifies before we begin.

The exceptions

When a file is hourly rather than contingency

Some files are not suited to contingency, for example when the municipality is appealing to increase an assessment and we are defending it, or when other issues on the file make the outcome hard to measure. Those are handled hourly.

We offer a free initial consultation for all commercial and industrial properties. Contact us to start.

Read about our services, or start with an assessment appeal or a portfolio review. We do not publish percentages or hourly rates here, because the right basis depends on your property and your file.
