30–50% of savings or hourly fees. May have local assessor relationships. Quality varies widely — ask for success rates and references specific to your county.
Property Tax Attorneys
33–50% or $200–500/hour. Best for commercial properties or complex situations (new construction, unique properties). Usually overkill for standard residential appeals.

How to Choose a Rhode Island Property Tax Appeal Company
1. Contingency only: Never pay upfront. Legitimate services charge only if they succeed.
2. Fee transparency: Know exactly what percentage they charge and how “savings” is defined (first-year only vs ongoing).
3. Rhode Island experience: Make sure they know your county's specific process, deadlines, and hearing procedures.
4. Free analysis: The best companies tell you if you have a case before committing — avoid those that file appeals blindly.
5. Communication: You should know the status of your appeal without having to chase them.
