What we do

We have a probate research team specialised in working with overseas partners to help bring news of an inheritance or asset due to heirs living around the world. Our research skills extend to numerous countries, either directly from our offices in London, Edinburgh or Dublin, or through our exclusive network of global partners and our regulated partners at the International Association of Professional Probate Researchers, Genealogists and Heir Hunters. (www.IAPPR.org) There are billions of pounds worth of unclaimed funds around the world and we pride ourselves on taking a proactive stance in identifying and locating the rightful beneficiaries. These funds take many forms: from unclaimed property or estates to financial assets or accounts which are lying dormant, having seemingly been forgotten. All international matters receive our specialist and dedicated attention. As speed is often of the essence, international research cases are prioritised and work commences extremely quickly after referral. Most cases of this kind are worked on a contingency fee basis, meaning the heirs we trace have nothing to pay at any time, and our fee, calculated as a percentage, can only be paid when an heir successfully receives money due to them. If the case is written off or comes to nothing, beneficiaries will not owe us anything. We take the financial risk and therefore, will do our utmost to ensure a successful outcome.
