Can a Tax Attorney Remove Tax Liens?
A federal tax lien damages your credit and clouds your property title. A tax attorney has several tools to deal with it.
A tax attorney can pursue three strategies for dealing with an IRS tax lien. Lien withdrawal removes the public notice entirely — the IRS will do this if you enter a Direct Debit installment agreement and meet certain conditions. Lien discharge removes the lien from a specific property, typically at a real estate closing. Lien subordination allows a new creditor (like a mortgage lender) to take priority over the IRS lien.
Each strategy requires a specific IRS application with supporting documentation. The process typically takes 30-45 days.
