Very Pleased
I’m glad I hired David to represent me in a tax assessment appeal after I purchased a new home. He responded to all my emails promptly, gave helpful advice in an efficient way, and kept me updated throughout the entire process. Best of all, the ruling in my case was actually lower than the previous owner’s assessment. More than I expected.

Great Experiences
David has represented me twice for real estate law needs. The first was after a divorce and a deed change was needed to remove my ex wife. The second time was for a utility easement for a new construction home build. I needed this done quickly so I did not delay the building permit process and he was able to deliver this in an extremely tight deadline. I would highly recommend using him.

Helped get me out of a jointly owned property
I hired David to help me get out of a property I purchased with a family member who was being extremely difficult and trying to take advantage of me. David was an excellent advocate, fought hard, and saw right through the dirty moves from the other owner and shut it down. He got me my fair share of the property. I am impressed with David’s work ethic and professionalism, and I am immensely happy that I hired him!

A efficient real estate attorney
I hired Attorney David in 2019 to reduce my property tax. I contacted him with emails and he handled the whole process and kept me up to date. He saved a lot of my time and effort and the fee is reasonable. I am very satisfied with the results.

Professional friendly service
We used David to appeal our Allegheny Co. real estate property assessment. David was prompt to respond to questions by phone, email or text. Before our hearing, David explained to us what his approach would be during the hearing and addressed concerns we had about how the county had assessed our property. David’s fee was a flat rate quoted up front and was more than reasonable. In the end David had our assessment reduced by 14%.

Home assessment appeal
I hired Mr. Tkacik to represent me for my assessment appeal with the local school board. He was attentive to my concerns, producing information thoroughly and professionally, and he kept me up to date on the process. His representation resulted in significant tax savings for my family. I recommend Mr. Tkacik enthusiastically and without reservation.
