Bank Levy Defense

Your money is frozen and the clock is ticking. This is the emergency lane — we move now.

When the IRS takes your bank account

A bank levy means the IRS has ordered your bank to hand over your funds. It usually arrives after a string of notices — but plenty of people first learn about their tax debt when the money disappears. Either way, this is the most time-sensitive situation in tax resolution. Every day matters, because the process keeps moving whether you act or not.

Our job: get the levy released, then fix the underlying debt so it doesn't happen again. Call now — this is exactly the situation our emergency lane exists for.

Start with a free call — talk it through with a CPA at no charge. Engagements start at $2,000 — one flat fee, quoted in writing upfront, so the number never moves. Levy defense engagements typically run $2,500–$4,000; your exact quote comes after a free call. Emergencies are prioritized same-day.

We return every call within one business hour.

How it works

  1. Call immediately — 888.212.9966. Don't wait for business hours if funds are frozen.
  2. We assess the levy, the notices behind it, and what you owe.
  3. Release pursued — we go after getting your funds back.
  4. Underlying debt resolved — payment plan, offer, or abatement so it ends here.
  5. Prevention — compliance locked in so this never repeats.

Common questions

Can levied money be recovered?

Sometimes — it depends on timing and circumstances. The faster you act, the more options exist. This is why 'call now' isn't a sales line here; it's real advice.

Will the IRS levy again after release?

They can, unless the underlying debt is resolved. Release without resolution is just a pause — we fix the root cause.

I never got any notices. How is this legal?

The IRS is required to send notices before levying, but mail goes astray — old addresses, ex-spouses, unopened mail. It happens constantly, and it doesn't make the levy invalid by itself.

What do I need when I call?

Have any IRS notices handy and know which bank account was hit. If you don't have notices, call anyway — we can work from there.
