EDD Lien

Service Overview

How the EDD Uses Liens

When an EDD payroll assessment goes unpaid, the EDD can record a Notice of State Tax Lien with the county recorder and Secretary of State, attaching to the employer’s property — and, where owners have been assessed personally under § 1735, potentially to their property too. The lien clouds title and disrupts financing.

Why EDD Liens Hit Owners, Not Just Companies

This is what catches employers off guard: because EDD liability can reach responsible persons personally, an EDD lien isn’t necessarily contained to the business. That makes resolving it — not just living with it — important for protecting an owner’s personal credit and property.

How Its Work

How We Help

We determine the basis of the lien, confirm whether it’s tied to the entity, the individuals, or both, and pursue the fastest path to release — resolving or settling the assessment, contesting it where an appeal is viable, or arranging payment — then make sure the release is recorded where the lien was filed.

We can’t control the EDD’s timing, but we make sure nothing on your side stalls the release.
