FAQs

Can you get the IRS to release the garnishment on my wages?

Yes. But to do so, I will need to get certain financial information from you to explore the options for resolving your tax debt other than garnishment of wages that the IRS will accept.

Can you get the IRS to release the lien it has filed against me?

The IRS is required to release a lien filed against you in certain circumstances; however if a full payment or a bond for the tax is not offered to IRS, getting a lien released can be difficult. Based upon certain facts and circumstances, however, the law does permit the IRS to release its lien even though the lien is still enforceable and has not been paid in full. We can examine your particular facts and circumstances to determine whether it would be worthwhile to seek a release of lien in this situation.

Can you help?

The IRS often will allow your mortgage lender to have a first lien on the property you want to purchase even though IRS has previously filed a lien against you. To achieve this purpose, we will seek a Certificate of Subordination from the IRS. Most lenders will agree to lend you money to purchase your home with this Certificate of Subordination.

Can you help me with my state tax debt?

Often, we can assist with resolving state tax debts. We are licensed to practice law in the District of Columbia. Maryland and Virginia, however, also recognize our representation of taxpayers in their states. Whether we can represent you in your state simply depends on whether your state will accept our representation.

What is the best way to contact you?

Whether you contact me by telephone (toll free for outside the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area), fax or email, I will respond no later than 24 hours after I receive your communication. Clients have said that they have found it helpful to write a short narrative identifying their problem, the tax years involved and the taxes, penalties, and interest owed for each year, and having before them the most recent correspondence from IRS before they contact me. I find it helpful, too. The quicker we can focus on the particular facts of your case, the quicker we can devise a solution.

We do have more answers on the FAQ page on our website.
