Unlike the levy which involves intangible assets such as your bank account, a
seizure is the taking of physical assets, such as your home or car. Seizures usually happen in aggravated cases when
someone ignores many requests by the IRS over a long period of time to pay their outstanding taxes.
IRS notices should not be taken lightly. If you ignore their letters and they believe you owe a significant sum of money, the IRS will ultimately pursue seizure of your physical assets. Don't
think they won't. Many a newspaper or television show has reported citizens being forced out of their homes after it
was sold at an IRS auction, often for as little as half its value.
When the IRS seizes your assets they want to quickly sell them at auction. They often get less than half your
assets value, so they often seize everything you own including your home, cars, boats, jewelry, motorcycles, insurance
polices, and even your retirement funds.
If you have received a notice of seizure, time is of the essence. You must act immediately! We will advocate on your behalf to try to avoid actual seizure of your home and other assets, if possible. Be advised, this is a very serious situation, with no time for delays. Call us at once and ask to speak with Jean immediately.
