FAQ

Our work starts with reviewing public records from multiple counties and government agencies to see whether money may be connected to an individual, property, or estate. We gather and verify information from several sources before reaching out.

Individuals are identified through extensive research using public records and related information. Multiple sources are reviewed and cross-referenced to ensure we only reach out when there is a legitimate reason to do so. .

An estimated amount can be identified during the initial review, which is why outreach takes place. Once you choose to move forward and give permission to act on your behalf, a more detailed review is completed to determine which agency is holding the money.

Timelines vary depending on the agency involved, and the process often takes several months due to required review and government processing. Some cases take longer, especially when estates or multiple parties are involved. Starting sooner can help avoid delays, and we handle the follow-up and monitoring so you don’t have to worry about it.

Deadlines vary by government agency. If no action is taken before those deadlines pass, the funds may be forfeited and retained by the agency, leaving nothing for you to recover. If we’ve contacted you, the money is currently still available. Reaching out allows you to understand the timing and decide how you’d like to proceed.

You’re welcome to search public websites and state-run databases on your own. In many cases, however, the situations we identify aren’t fully visible through those sources and require extensive research, documentation, and months of follow-up with government agencies. Some cases may also involve coordination with attorneys or additional review. For many people, the time and persistence required make professional assistance worthwhile.

This process requires detailed research, strict procedures, and ongoing coordination with government agencies — and, at times, legal professionals. We manage those details carefully to help ensure funds aren’t delayed, denied, or forfeited.
