Andrea has a unique combination of education and experience that provides me with an excellent foundation for evaluating and anticipating clients’ property tax needs. She is a strong advocate with a litigator’s tenacity. As an attorney in the property tax field, Andrea does not limit her practice to the legal aspects of her clients’ cases. She works in-depth on valuation and finessing valuation issues through the nuances of the property tax laws in various states in the Southeast.
