A Tax Planning Expert With $2.5 Million in Tax Liens: Inside the Background of Mark Bianchi

A self-described tax strategist who markets services to "recapture or eliminate taxes" has been pursued by the IRS across four states for unpaid personal tax obligations spanning more than a decade, according to public records.

Mark Bianchi promotes himself as a tax planning expert. His digital business card, hosted on the platform Get Card, advertises Titan Capital Recovery Group and its focus on strategies that "recapture or eliminate taxes." His LinkedIn profile lists him as CEO of Parkhill Capital Group and Titan Capital Recovery Group. He has appeared on podcasts discussing "Investment Opportunities with a Charitable Purpose." He has marketed his services to accredited investors through professional networking events, including as a corporate sponsor of the Exclusive Academy of Real Estate Professionals in Southern California.

He is also, according to public records spanning nearly two decades, a serial tax debtor whose personal obligations to the IRS and state tax authorities have followed him from Los Angeles to Nashville to Westchester County, New York, to Palm Beach County, Florida.

Public records reveal at least 18 federal and state tax liens filed against Bianchi between 2006 and 2021, totaling more than $2.5 million in assessed obligations. The largest individual liens include a $529,445 federal lien covering tax years 2008 through 2018, a $441,076 federal lien for tax year 2019, a $431,721 federal lien for tax year 2008, and a $379,450 California franchise tax lien for the same year. Several of these liens were recorded in multiple jurisdictions simultaneously, suggesting IRS efforts to locate and attach assets across state lines. While some liens show subsequent releases, others, including the $529,445 federal lien recorded in Westchester County and a $22,330 federal lien from 2013 in Los Angeles County, show no release in the public record.

The Business Card and the Business

Bianchi's Get Card profile, captured in October 2024 as part of due diligence conducted by parties in the litigation, presents Titan Capital Recovery Group as a professional advisory firm specializing in tax-advantaged strategies. The site includes three client success stories featuring individuals identified as Adam, Phyllis, and Billy, with specific details about insurance settlements and tax savings.

Those three stories were copied nearly verbatim from the website of Abacus Life, a publicly traded company listed on NASDAQ that specializes in life insurance settlement products. Language, including "we quickly paid her premiums," appears on both Bianchi's site and the Abacus Life website. Abacus Life is a regulated, publicly reporting company. Titan Capital Recovery Group was a Florida LLC that voluntarily dissolved in May 2023. The stated reason on the articles of dissolution filed with the Florida Secretary of State: "this entity is not profitable."

Titan is one of at least three Bianchi-affiliated entities that have been dissolved in the past two years. Parkhill Advisory Group Inc., incorporated in Tennessee in February 2023, was administratively dissolved in August 2024. Parkhill Energy Group, also a Tennessee corporation, was dissolved on the same date. A "Parkhill Capital Group Inc." was formed in Delaware in July 2022, but the due diligence report notes it "could not be conclusively identified" as the same entity Bianchi claims on his LinkedIn profile.

In a 2021 New York lawsuit filed to confirm an arbitration award, Titan Capital Recovery Group LLC was identified in court documents as "a New York limited liability company." The New York Secretary of State has no record of any such entity. The lawsuit was filed by Meister Seelig & Fein LLP, the same firm that formed Titan in Florida in 2018. The sole manager of the Florida entity was Gina Fini, managing partner of Hotaling Insurance Services, a firm with which Bianchi is also affiliated. Fini is married to Bobby Hotaling, the firm's principal.

A Pattern of Unpaid Obligations

The tax liens are not the only financial obligations Bianchi has left unresolved. He was sued for breach of contract in 2009 by CPA firm Gursey Schneider LLP in Los Angeles County. A default judgment of $11,488 was entered against him. He was sued for unpaid rent in 2016 in Davidson County, Tennessee. He failed to appear, and a default judgment of $11,157 was entered in 2017. He was sued for unpaid rent again in 2019 in Los Angeles County, resulting in a judgment of $12,100 that was ultimately paid.

American Express pursued Bianchi twice in Davidson County in 2016 and 2018. Both cases were dismissed without prejudice because American Express was unable to serve him. In the 2016 case, the process server noted the property address was vacant.

In his first divorce, Bianchi's ex-wife Leticia filed in 2005. A judgment was entered in 2007, and the case remained active in Los Angeles Superior Court as of October 2024. A February 2024 filing by Leticia's attorneys alleged that Bianchi still owed $4,000,000 in past-due equalization payments and child support. A January 2021 judgment of $1,789,491 was entered against him in the same proceeding. The 2014 final judgment in the case sanctioned Bianchi "due to Respondent's conduct which frustrated the policy of the law to promote settlement of litigation and reduce the cost of litigation by encouraging cooperation."

Mark Bianchi filed his own lawsuit against Leticia in September 2024 in U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, alleging she fraudulently imposed tax liability on him through Schedule K-1 forms related to a jointly held real estate partnership. He is seeking $416,000. As of the most recent review, no summonses had been served.

The CAP Offering

The Head Genetics litigation centers on what court documents describe as the "CAP Offering," a charitable deduction securities offering that Head Genetics and its associates launched after gaining access to Solidaris's proprietary trade secret methodologies. In a February 2026 deposition, Head Genetics CEO Fabian Maclaren testified that Bianchi was "the one dealing directly with investors" for the CAP Offering. Maclaren also testified that the concussion test product at the center of the offering was not manufactured at the time of its purported charitable donation, that promised telehealth services were never delivered, and that he did not know what the donee charity believed it was receiving.

Nicholas Bianchi, Mark Bianchi's son, was the sole manager and owner of OptiHealth Management Inc., the entity that issued the CAP offering securities.

Head Genetics has raised zero external funding. No FDA submissions, applications, or filings exist in FDA databases for its concussion diagnostic device. No clinical trials are registered. No peer-reviewed publications exist. Head Genetics' authority to do business in Tennessee was administratively revoked as of August 2025. Its founders are separately accused in Delaware Chancery Court of spending millions in company funds on personal expenses while the company was insolvent.
