4 Ways a Tax Lien Can Affect You

Posted by The Law Offices of Nick Nemeth on April 24, 2020

The government’s claim against the property of a taxpayer when they fail to meet their tax obligations is known as a Federal tax lien. The lien protects the government’s interest in the property, including personal assets, real estate, and financial assets. It gets activated when the IRS assesses its books and discovers that you have defaulted on your tax debt. The next step is issuing a “Notice of Federal Tax Lien” to apprise creditors that the government has acquired a legal right over your property. You don’t need to panic if you find yourself in such a situation as a

Making a call to Nick Nemeth was the best decision I ever made. After years of fighting the IRS myself and getting deeper and deeper into debt with interest adding up to more than I owed to start with I had to do something. Nick's office got the IRS to settle with me for 10% of what they said I owed. Although it took a little over a year it was worth it in the long run. Elizabeth is in my opinion one of the best employees that Nick has. She stayed in touch with me and explained everything every step of the way. I totally recommend them to help with IRS issues. Thank you again Kristi Thompson

Sherry and I just wanted to say Thank You to everyone at the Law Offices of Nick Nemeth! From the very beginning the staff has always been very personable and of course professional. The payment terms up front were very helpful and the communication was always prompt. The most important item we want to make clear was the level of commitment and services provided on the firms part never dwindled from the beginning to the end, long, long after the payments were made by us. Also the prediction of the settlement was very close to what we were told from the very start. At one point the IRS claimed we owed almost $10,000,000 in taxes!!! Through the firms hard work and extensive experience our case has been settled and we will have paid $88,469 total. Thank you very much...Promises Made, Promises Kept, Steve and Sherry Foose May 29th, 2018

We enjoyed working with Nick and his staff. They are very professional, courteous and timely. The main thing I appreciate about Nick is that he will tell you upfront whether or not he can help you. While our situation was unique to us--we were not able to get much relief from the IRS. However, Nick was able to help us manage our way through the extremely untimely, inefficient, and non-compassionate IRS. We are very thankful for Nick's help with this process. There is no way we would have been able to figure out the IRS process on our own. If you think you can do it on your own--good luck--but I would recommend giving Nick a call.

We owed the IRS a tax debt we could not even possibly begin to pay. We had tried dealing with the IRS directly and had talked with another attorney and had been given a dire picture of what would ensue, and were more confused and fearful than when we started. We walked into The Law Offices of Nick Nemeth full of fear and trepidation, not knowing what to expect. The front desk staff were relaxed and professional, and assured us that if anybody could help us, it would be Nick Nemeth. Nick walked into the conference room and was confident and friendly. After talking with us at length and reviewing our files, he told us that we qualified to obtain the rare and coveted Offer in Compromise, which would, if approved by the IRS, result in a one-time payment of a small fraction of our tax debt. We met with Brittney, our case manager, who clearly explained what we would need to do, and that we would be working with Brad and Elizabeth as well. All three were readily available to communicate with us via telephone or email and met with us in person as needed. They helped us complete all the necessary documentation for submission to the IRS, and were very reassuring during the long wait for the IRS to come to a decision. Much to our surprise and delight, our Offer in Compromise was accepted by the IRS, reducing our tax debt from well over $100,000 to just over $1,300! This would never have happened without the assistance and knowledge of Nick Nemeth, Elizabeth, Brittney, Brad, and the other staff of Nick’s law office. We would highly recommend retaining their services to anybody who feels overwhelmed and hopeless due to a huge tax debt. Don’t give up! Nick and his staff will not give up, and will fight the IRS for you to the end! The relief of having such a huge weight lifted off our shoulders was indescribably relieving. Christy and Bob Woodward

Nick and his staff were so helpful and informative. Although he could not assist me me at this time, he did refer me and his assistant Joanne was more than willing to help me find a to a CPA that he was was confident with and believed he could help solve the problem I am facing. The staff was friendly and eager to help in any way they could. Kudos to all the people at his office. Great people!

Nick was not our first foray into this, the previous others had either just stolen our money or taken our money and closed their business without any refund, and we were left hanging. Not Nick Nick is the real deal, he has the knowledge both legal and practical to help you find a way back above the water. His team is rock solid and they answer your calls and email every time. Not only did Nick do what he said he would do, which is rare in today business world, he also helped us learn and grow so were better prepared for any future issues too. When I say trust I mean Trust Nick!

I spoke to Chase about hiring him to help me with my back taxes. He took his time to understand my situation and gave me honest feedback. He truly put my interest first and didn't try to sell me anything. He simply gave me a few options and told me what he thought made the most sense in my current situation. I highly recommend speaking to him if you have questions or concerns associated with the IRS and taxes.

Nick, I am really glad we had a mutual friend who knew you. From the first consultation, which was real and genuine, to meeting everyone that was on my team, I really felt you all understood my situation. I was seven years behind on filing my taxes and all the sudden I get hit with a tax lien. That woke me up! I really felt Nick and his team understood and cared about my IRS problem. Brittney was phenomenal! Your process of time lines and check points made it challenging for me, however, it provided me an easy path and simplified it in a way that I could understand. Thank you for all your support. I am very thankful that when I shared my painful and embarrassing situation with my friend that he recommended you. I didn’t have to look over all town and waste my time and money with an organization that doesn’t have a face behind the name. I know I made the right decision. My recommendation to every one, HIRE THE EXPERTS!
