Inheritance Searches
Many rightful heirs of such assets do not know they are entitled to receive money because the records didn’t exist to inform them.
In the United States, government agencies are holding billions in unclaimed money owed to missing owners and heirs. By law, assets become legally unclaimed after the original owners or rightful heirs fail to identify and claim them in a specified period of time - generally runs one to three years.
Insurance companies, banks, brokerages, trade and credit unions, employers and utilities must transfer such unclaimed assets to the protective custody of a government trust account in a process known as escheatment.
Many rightful heirs of such assets do not know they are entitled to receive this money because the records didn’t exist to inform them. And in some ways it is a conflict of interest for asset holders or even governments to perform extensive searches to identify legal beneficiaries of an inheritance – such searches cost money and as you might guess governments don’t mind having the funds in their coffers.
If you believe you may be entitled to an inheritance or are seeking to reclaim assets that may be rightfully yours, call Martin Investigative Services today. We utilize proprietary data sources and interact with state and local governments to identify and reclaim assets on your behalf.
