The Company

Equitax was formed in 1992 as a part time business and has grown into the most formidable taxpayer advocacy in Texas with ten full-time licensed property tax consultants. G. Michael Wilson started the company and continues to serve as president and the driving force behind the company.

Equitax has earned its reputation through performance. The company’s clients are among the biggest and best businesses in Texas—their taxes are among the lowest—well over $125,000,000 lower because of the performance of Equitax.
