IRS Seizure of Business Assets

Seattle IRS Asset Seizure Lawyer

The IRS has the power to take business assets when business owners do not pay taxes owed. This means the IRS effectively has the power to shut a business down if it believes that your business is not viable. This is not something it wants to do. It is a last resort, after it has attempted to collect through bank account levies and other means, but it will seize business assets if your business continues to run payroll, for example, without making the required federal tax deposits or paying your Form 941 taxes in full and on time.

The Bellevue, Washington, law firm of Lana Kurilova Rich, PLLC, is dedicated to preventing this major tax problem for businesses in the Greater Seattle area, statewide and nationwide. Call us at (425) 289-0629 for an initial phone consultation with our Seattle IRS asset seizure attorney.

Washington IRS Lien Lawyer, Showing the IRS the Big Picture

If the IRS has sent revenue officers to value your business's machinery, equipment or other physical assets, it is important to act quickly. Undoubtedly, the IRS revenue officers may attempt to communicate with your staff (despite the rules of taxpayer confidentiality), which could cause havoc in your business. In some cases, the IRS simply does not see the big picture of how your business operates. You may have contracts on the books that will be paid in a matter of months that will allow you to pay off your tax debts. In other cases, you have fallen behind and you need a bit of assistance and time to get back on track with your federal tax deposits and form 941 tax payments. We will work with the IRS so that it understands that payment may be on the way.

If there is no foreseeable way to pay your business's tax debts in full in the near future, we may be able to create a payment plan, reach a settlement or find some other alternative that allows you to prevent IRS asset seizure and keep your business open.

These matters can escalate quickly, and depending on the circumstances, could lead to criminal charges, which should be avoided at all costs. We will take the time to review all of your options as well as all of the potential consequences. You can be confident that our experience in these matters can benefit you.
