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
