An IRS tax lien can create serious financial and legal obstacles. When the government files a Notice of Federal Tax Lien, it becomes a public claim against your property and assets. Margolies Law Office helps individuals and business owners remove, discharge, or resolve federal tax liens before they cause long-term damage.
A lien can interfere with selling property, refinancing, securing loans, or maintaining business credit. Acting quickly is critical.
A federal tax lien is the government’s legal claim against everything you own, including:
Future property acquired while the lien is active Margolies Law Office works to analyze your IRS account and determine the most effective way to remove or reduce the impact of the lien.
These terms are not interchangeable. Choosing the correct strategy depends on your goal.
Discharge removes the lien from a specific property. This is commonly used when selling or refinancing real estate.
Release removes the lien entirely after the debt is paid or legally resolved.
Withdrawal removes the public Notice of Federal Tax Lien as if it were never filed. This is often the most beneficial outcome for credit and reputation.
Margolies Law Office evaluates which remedy best protects your financial interests.
A tax lien creates a cloud on title. Buyers and lenders will not move forward until the lien is addressed.
To sell property, a Certificate of Discharge must typically be approved. The IRS may allow the sale if it receives the net equity or if its interest is otherwise protected.
Margolies Law Office coordinates directly with the IRS, title companies, and lenders to prevent closing delays and protect transaction timelines.
Unresolved tax liens can lead to:
Ignoring IRS notices increases the likelihood of enforcement action. Early intervention provides more options.
Resolving a lien requires reviewing IRS transcripts, confirming the balance, and identifying whether discharge, subordination, release, or withdrawal is appropriate.

“ Andrew Margolies did a great job for my mom who had paid her taxes, but the IRS failed to associate the payment with her account. She kept getting letters demanding payment with accrued interest and fees even though they had cashed her check.
After Andrew started working on it, the letters stopped. We were notified there had been a credit to my mom’s account, and finally the payment was properly applied with a zero balance. She is even receiving a refund.
We’re very happy with Andrew and would highly recommend him.”
“I came to Andrew Margolies with a significant IRS issue that I had been losing sleep over for months. I spoke with Jennifer on the phone, got in the same day for a consultation, and had a full resolution within 2 business days for a reasonable price. Andrew did exactly what he said he was going to do and provided me with a thorough resolution.
Being 9 months pregnant, Andrew was extremely sensitive to my timeline urgency and was on the phone with me at 5pm on a Friday helping me with my case.
Before meeting with Andrew, I called around to 10 different offices. All of those interactions felt like a sales funnel and a money grab. I can’t explain the relief I have having chosen to work with Andrew and having a resolution within days. We’re absolutely thrilled with the value and the experience.”
“100% recommended. I had a problem regarding my tax return since the beginning of 2023 and had been trying to follow up myself until 2025 with no progress. I decided to work with Attorney Andrew and Jennifer and in less than a month my problem was solved.
Attorney Andrew is very knowledgeable with reasonable fees and Jennifer is very responsive to all requests and questions. Most importantly they have business ethics. I will not look further if I have any more tax problems.”
