Claim Process

We Carefully Investigate Your Unclaimed Funds

We begin by reviewing the case to confirm the rightful claimant. From there, we examine any outstanding liens or parties who may have a legal interest in the funds. Once verified, we use professional tools to locate the proper claimant and reach out by phone and/or mail.

We Handle the Documents and Submit Your Claim

You will receive a short set of forms to review and sign. After that, we assemble the full claim package and submit it to the appropriate agency on your behalf. We advance all costs and legal expenses, and we are only paid if the funds are successfully recovered. If for any reason the claim is not successful (which is rare), you owe nothing.

We Advocate for Your Claim Throughout the Process

We stay in regular contact with the agency to ensure the claim continues moving forward and to promptly address any additional requests. Because this is our specialty, we understand each agency’s procedures and know how to navigate the process efficiently.

We Make Sure You Receive Your Funds

Once your claim is approved, we immediately notify you. After the agency issues payment, we promptly send your portion within approximately 10 days.

Timeframe: Once we receive your signed paperwork, we promptly submit your claim to the appropriate government agency. Processing times vary by state and case complexity. In most cases, funds are issued within approximately 3–8 weeks, though some claims may take up to 3 to 6 months.

Claim Documents

We are in the business of assisting those entitled to unrecovered funds by contributing experience, dedication and insight. If you receive a letter of Representation (LOR), we’ll also provide the notary to notarize your paperwork. Once received, our claims processor will process your paperwork. We'll notify you as soon as your claim is approved. We'll forward you a check once the funds are recovered.

Letter of Representation

This agreement outlines the relationship between you and our company. It explains the services we provide, the scope of our representation, and how our contingency structure works. Under this arrangement, there are no upfront costs to you — we are only paid if we successfully recover funds on your behalf.

Assignment of Interest in Foreclosure Sale Excess Proceeds

This document authorizes us to act on your behalf in pursuing your surplus funds. It provides the required permission for the appropriate agency to recognize our role in handling the claim process for you.

Letter of Direction

This letter identifies all parties involved and instructs the agency on how to handle the claim and release the funds. It helps ensure the payment is issued correctly and prevents delays caused by processing errors.

Affidavit of Heirship (For Heirs Only)

This sworn statement is used when the original property owner passed away without a will. It helps confirm rightful heirs and establishes eligibility to claim the funds.

This is a simple explanation of each document we use to complete your claim and its purpose. If you have any questions about the process, our team is here to help at (786)-567-8656.
