New York Tax Law Attorney

IRS Collections Actions

The Law Offices of Lee David Auerbach, P.C. has provided personal attention and dedication in the representation of individuals and businesses involved in IRS tax debt and collection matters since 1977.

It is vitally important to contact an experienced attorney as soon as possible upon receiving a phone call from the Automated Collections System (ACS) or a visit from a field revenue officer. We can provide you with sound guidance to address the tax debt proactively and prevent your account from becoming delinquent.

When preventing delinquency is no longer an option, our firm can act immediately to seek an extension or delay in collection to allow you the time necessary to address your immediate financial concerns and conduct a thorough assessment of your options for minimizing the amount of debt owed.

  • Large Firm Skill Small Firm Service
  • Creative · Responsive Forward-looking

Experienced accountant-attorney Lee David Auerbach can explain your options for dealing with IRS collection actions and provide strategies for the resolution of a variety of related matters, including:

  • IRS audits
  • Levy and bank restraint releases
  • Wage garnishment releases
  • Federal tax liens
  • New York state tax warrants
  • Bank levy releases
  • Full-pay services
  • "Currently not collectible" status

Offers in Compromise and Installment Agreements

An offer in compromise is one method of reducing your IRS debt. Subject to certain government terms and conditions, an offer in compromise can help you settle your tax liability for much less than the total amount the IRS claims you owe. Even in cases where the amount of tax debt is in dispute, an offer in compromise may represent the most cost-effective option.

We can also assist you in negotiating an installment agreement to minimize the impact on your personal or business finances of tax debt repayment. By agreeing to pay the tax debt in installments, you can immediately halt IRS collection actions and forestall any bank restraints or wage garnishment.
