The main function of the Tax Collections Team is collecting delinquent property taxes through tax suits and other legal processes in the state courts. This includes collecting delinquent property tax on taxable personal property, typically income producing tangible personal property and manufactured homes. Our client, the Travis County Tax Assessor Collector, collects the taxes for nearly all the local taxing entities in the county. Our work contributes to paying for practically all local government services, including schools, police, fire protection, hospitals, jails, courts, emergency services, parks, libraries, etc. Ultimately, our work is for the benefit of the residents of Travis County so that those important local services are properly funded.
