Unfreeze Your Bank Accounts and Protect Your Assets

An IRS bank levy is one of the most serious collection actions the IRS can take against an individual. When a levy is issued, the IRS legally instructs your bank to freeze the funds in your accounts. After a short holding period—typically 21 days—the bank is required to send the money directly to the IRS to satisfy your tax debt.

This action can leave individuals and businesses unable to pay bills, meet payroll, or cover essential expenses. If your accounts have been frozen, time is of the essence. At Perez-Roura Law, our Miami IRS bank levy lawyers act promptly to halt levies, negotiate with the IRS, and establish a sustainable resolution plan.

How IRS Bank Levies Work

Before issuing a bank levy, the IRS must:

1. Assess the tax debt and send a formal Notice and Demand for Payment.
2. Issue a Final Notice of Intent to Levy and Notice of Your Right to a Hearing at least 30 days before the levy.
3. Notify your bank to freeze your accounts.

Once frozen, you cannot access the funds during the 21-day holding period. This is your best opportunity to act before the funds are permanently allocated.

Steps We Take

Our legal team moves fast to release the levy and protect your assets. Depending on your circumstances, we may:

• Request an Immediate Levy Release – We contact the IRS on your behalf to demonstrate financial hardship or propose a formal resolution plan.
• Negotiate a Long-Term Resolution – We use strategies such as Offer in Compromise (OIC), Installment Agreements, Partial Pay Installment Agreements (PPIA), or Currently Not Collectible (CNC) status to address the underlying tax debt.
• Prevent Future Levies – We build a permanent compliance strategy to protect your bank accounts from future IRS actions.
