What's New at Larkin Hoffman
Owners of “income-producing property” (property that produces revenue through rents) who are considering filing a tax petition should be mindful of special considerations—and associated pitfalls—that apply to such properties. The Minnesota Supreme Court provided a recent reminder that the financial information disclosure requirements will be strictly enforced—upon pain of dismissal of the tax petition for noncompliance.The April 30 deadline for filing a property tax appeal will soon be upon us, which makes this the perfect time to consider whether your property is fairly or properly assessed by the local taxing authority. The real estate valuation subgroup of Larkin Hoffman’s Real Estate Litigation department provides property tax consultation services at little or no cost to the client. We provide free property tax appeal consultations for properties with assessed values of $2 million or greater. We have assisted many owners of income-producing properties in determining whether to file a tax petition and in obtaining substantial tax savings through assessed value reductions. There is still time to seek a consultation before this year’s April 30 filing deadline. Larkin Hoffman is proud to announce that three of our attorneys have been named 2013 "Legal Eagles" by Franchise Times magazine. Jim Susag, Joe Fittante and Charles Modell have been selected for inclusion. The annual Franchise Times "Legal Eagle" recognizes the premiere attorneys in Franchise Law. This year, 115 Legal Eagles were selected from 775 nominations. Selections are based on peer and client nominations that are supplemented by research and reviewed by the editorial board. Larkin Hoffman will sponsor Gillette Children’s Specialty Healthcare’s second annual Laugh Out Loud Twin Cities. The fundraising event will be held at the Radisson Blu at Mall of America on September 28, 2013 and will feature a national comedy act. The firm has been a proud supporter of Gillette Children's Specialty Healthcare and its mission to "Cure Pity" for nearly 20 years. |
When the father of a nine year-old girl needed help to secure his rights to parenting time, he contacted Larkin Hoffman. The father and mother had been separated for several years and the mother refused to let the father have more than six hours of parenting time with the child every other weekend. After the mother refused to change her position in mediation, Larkin Hoffman attorney Rob Hill prevailed in district court so that the father received the statutorily presumptive 25 percent of parenting time. For the first time, the daughter now spends overnights at her dad's apartment. Register to receive Larkin e-News: Legal news affecting you. |
