Did you know that Israel has one of the highest rates of lawyers per capita?  As a result of this, we know it can be difficult to find the right person for you.  To help we have written a short article addressing how to choose the best lawyer for you.  It has a number of tips and criteria that may be helpful to you as you decide who can best assist you with your arnona case.

When selecting your representation, it is important to select a firm that has years of experience in administrative law and municipal tax decrees. A lawyer who specializes in these regulations can properly distinguish between standard property issues and complex issues. The ability to establish a difference between these two is required to make sure your challenge of an unfair municipal assessment is properly prepared. 

For example, our senior partner Adv. Joshua Pex serves as the Chairman of the Arnona Appeals Committee for the Tamar Regional Council. His expert background provides insight into exactly how municipal committees evaluate evidence and interpret tax decrees. This will give your case a distinct advantage. 

We address all legal issues related to arnona, and we have written a series of arnona articles for the benefit of our clients.  We address numerous issues in our articles, some of which may be of relevance to you.  For example, we discuss “Types of Property Taxes,” “What Is Arnona,” “Who Has to Pay Arnona,” “Subletters and Arnona,” “When to Pay Arnona,” “How to Get an Arnona Exemption,” “Submitting an Objection (or Appeal) on Arnona Taxes,” “Who Gets Arnona Discounts,” and more.

Our expertise at Decker, Pex, and Levi law firm is willing to fight back against the common practice of municipalities rejecting valid exemption claims. We help our clients reclaim funds by correctly classifying their properties, securing discounts for non-profits and religious institutions, and navigating the 90-day window for filing former objections to make sure your rights are protected throughout the whole process. 

A key area that we address is fixing architectural measurement disputes. Municipalities and regional councils in Israel use different methods to calculate the taxable space of properties. A lot of these methods will add common areas like lobbies and hallways. Our law firm reviews these measurements and pushes for distinct classifications. This is to ensure that areas such as warehouses or service spaces are not billed at the same rates that main commercial areas are.
