Bank Levies in New York

A frozen account can shut a business down overnight. At Shim Law Group, P.C., we move quickly to unfreeze levied accounts, pursuing emergency court relief so your business can meet payroll and keep running. When a levy hits, every day matters, and we act with urgency.

  • Assessing the judgment and levy for defects
  • Seeking emergency relief to release frozen funds
  • Identifying funds that may be exempt from levy
  • Negotiating with the creditor to lift or limit the levy
  • Addressing the underlying judgment where possible

Bank Levies Questions, Answered by Our Attorneys

A bank levy is a legal action, usually following a judgment, that freezes and can seize funds in an account to satisfy a debt. It can quickly cut off the money a business needs to operate.

Often there are options. Depending on the circumstances, relief may be available through the court, by identifying exempt funds, or by negotiating with the creditor. We move quickly to pursue release.

Certain funds may be exempt from levy under the law. We review your accounts to identify any protected funds and to challenge an improper levy.

Immediately. A levy can jeopardize payroll and operations within days, so prompt action gives you the best chance of releasing the funds quickly.
