What exactly are unclaimed assets and how do they arise?
Unclaimed assets are funds held by government agencies that have not been collected by their rightful owners. These can arise from various property transactions where excess equity was generated but never distributed to the former owner.
What indicates that I might be entitled to unclaimed assets?
If you were involved in a property transfer that generated funds above the required obligations, you may be eligible to claim the difference. Our team can help assess your eligibility by reviewing relevant records and agency filings.
Can you explain the process for getting unclaimed assets released?
- Confirming your eligibility to claim unclaimed assets after a property transfer.
- Collecting the necessary documentation and records to support your claim.
- Preparing and submitting the claim to the appropriate agency or state office.
- Monitoring and following up to ensure your claim is processed and resolved.
Do I need to pay anything upfront to begin the claim process?
No — we work on a contingency basis, which means you won’t pay anything upfront. We only receive a fee if and when we successfully recover your funds, so there’s no financial risk to you.
How much time does it usually take to recover surplus funds?
The time it takes to recover surplus funds can vary based on how complex your case is and how quickly the county processes claims. In many cases, the process takes several weeks to a few months, and in more involved situations it may take longer. Our team works hard to move things along efficiently and keeps you updated at every step.
