Tax Levies, Liens & Seizures

Houston, Texas Tax Levies, Liens & Seizures Attorney

The IRS uses various tools to collect tax debt, including levies, liens and seizures of property. The IRS has the authority to take any action to collect on tax debt. The IRS has exclusive rights to your property and its claims will take precedence over any other creditors. They have the power to take your home, your car, and your bank accounts without obtaining a court order.

If your bank account has been frozen or an IRS lien has appeared on your credit report, do not hesitate to contact our IRS tax levy attorney. We will take immediate action and contact the IRS to resolve the situation.

Tax liens

Tax liens give the IRS a legal claim to your property as security or payment for your tax debt. By filing notice of this lien, your creditors are publicly notified that the IRS has a claim against all of the taxpayer’s property, including property acquired after the lien is filed. This may include your house, your care, or your bank accounts.

Tax levies

A tax levy is an important tool used by the IRS to collect tax debt. Unlike other creditors, the IRS is given ultimate power to seize any assets in order to satisfy your tax debt without getting a court order. With the most sophisticated abilities to access your accounts, the IRS will use a vast array of databases to identify where you live, work and where you hold accounts. Even if you are given a short notice, you can take action to prevent the seizure of your property.

Our attorneys will take immediate action to prevent wage garnishment, the seizure of bank and investment accounts, including retirement accounts, or the seizure of your vehicle. Contact our IRS tax lien lawyer as soon as possible to protect your rights and prevent levies, liens, or seizures.

Releasing and removing liens

Our attorneys will take an aggressive and strategic approach to release your tax lien. IRS may issue a certificate of release if you can successfully negotiate through an offer in compromise. We will explore all of your options and aggressively assert your rights to release a tax lien.

Levies, liens, or seizures may affect your credit, your ability to secure a loan, and may seriously affect your financial security. Contact our IRS tax seizure Attorney to help obtain a payment plan to protect your assets.

The IRS will usually send a letter, make an assessment, and then threaten with levies and liens. Usually they won’t seize your property unless you are uncooperative. Sometimes a lien is filed before the taxpayer was given the appropriate opportunity to dispute the assessed liability. When a tax lien is filed, your credit may be harmed, you may not be able to get a loan to buy a house or obtain a credit card. Our attorneys will take immediate action on your behalf to resolve any tax dispute and release you from a tax lien. Contact our IRS tax lawyer  to protect your rights.
