How it works

We look

Tell us where and roughly when the home was sold. We search public court, trustee and county records to see if surplus funds exist in your name. Free.

We explain

If there’s money, we tell you how much the records show, who is holding it, and every option you have, including filing on your own.

Attorneys file

If you want our help, you sign a clear written agreement first. Where the law requires it, an independent licensed attorney prepares and files the claim.

You get paid

The court, trustee or county releases the funds. Our fee, if any, is only taken from a successful recovery, as stated in your agreement.

What we’ll ask for later (not to check)

• Photo ID
• Proof you owned the home (deed, mortgage or tax records; we can often find these)
• The county’s claim forms, often notarized
• For heirs: death certificate and estate documents

What you’ll always get

• The amount the records show, and who holds it
• Your options, including filing yourself
• A written agreement before anything is filed
• Updates at each stage
