Property owners who have filed a protest with their local appraisal review board (ARB) have the option to request limited binding arbitration for procedural violations during the ARB protest process or request regular binding arbitration to appeal values determined by local ARBs.

Potential Tax Savings When you successfully challenge your property's assessed value, you can lower your tax liability. Many homeowners find discrepancies in their property appraisal that, when corrected, reduce their tax bill. The potential savings often justify the effort and time spent on a property tax protest.

Certain U.S. income tax treaties provide for mandatory binding arbitration to resolve eligible cases in which the competent authorities have endeavored but are unable to reach a complete agreement.

Each party presents its case to the arbitrator or panel of arbitrators. After each side presents its case, the arbitrator makes an award, following the arbitration rules and agreements the parties accepted. The party who prevails in the dispute may choose to have the court confirm the award, making it enforceable.

Arbitration is a binding process between the parties. The parties present their case to a neutral arbitrator, who then decides based on the evidence presented. The parties agree to follow this decision.

Validity of Arbitration Agreements Under Section 171.001 of the TAA, written agreements to arbitrate are generally valid and enforceable in Texas. This section ensures that, barring any specific legal exceptions, parties bound by a written agreement to arbitrate must settle their disputes outside of court.

A claimant will typically start arbitration by sending a document known as a “request for arbitration” or a “notice to arbitrate” to its opponent.
