Molly is a partner with the Chicago office of Siegel Jennings, Co., LPA – a National Property Tax Law Firm and founding member of the American Property Tax Counsel. She helps clients identify, maximize and protect the full potential of their real estate assets, minimize related tax liabilities, and resolve disputes with tax authorities and government entities. Molly’s client experience ranges from local multi-family portfolios to national commercial investment funds, including special use properties such as hospital campuses to multi-million-dollar manufacturing facilities. She strategizes with her clients on a broad spectrum of real estate taxation matters, including tax assessment valuations, commercial development incentives, government incentives, reclassifications, exemptions, tax parcel divisions, municipal land banks and property tax abatement strategies.
