Tax Negotiation

Federal Tax Lien Release & Withdrawal

A federal tax lien is a legal claim by the IRS against all of your property — including real estate, personal property, and financial assets — when you neglect or fail to pay a tax debt. It is filed publicly and damages your credit, complicates property sales, and can block financing.

A tax lien is different from a levy: a lien is a legal claim, while a levy is an actual seizure. However, an unresolved lien typically leads to a levy. Our team pursues lien withdrawal, subordination, or discharge — and resolves the underlying debt to permanently remove the lien.

Ways to Remove or Reduce a Tax Lien

There are several ways to address a federal tax lien depending on your circumstances:

  • ✓ Lien Withdrawal — IRS removes the lien as if it never existed (best outcome)
  • ✓ Lien Release — lien removed after full payment or OIC acceptance
  • ✓ Lien Subordination — IRS allows another creditor priority over the lien (enables refinancing)
  • ✓ Lien Discharge — IRS removes lien from a specific property to allow its sale
  • ✓ Lien Nonattachment — prevents a lien from attaching to specific transferred property

The Process

How We Address Your Tax Lien

Our approach targets both the lien itself and the underlying tax debt that caused it.

1

Lien Analysis

We pull your IRS account transcripts and lien records to confirm the lien's validity, amount, and any errors that may allow for immediate withdrawal.

2

Credit & Property Impact Review

We assess how the lien is affecting your credit score, property title, and ability to finance or sell real estate.

3

Resolution Strategy

We determine whether withdrawal, subordination, discharge, or full payoff via OIC is the right approach for your goals.

4

IRS Submission & Follow-Up

We submit all required forms, correspond with the IRS, and follow through until the lien is officially removed from public records.
