HEIRS & BENIFICIARIES

You may be reading this because you have been contacted by a member of our team. We understand that your first reaction may be one of disbelief and believing it a hoax or a scam. Please do not be concerned.  It is most likely that  our client has instructed us to trace the heirs and living beneficiaries to the estate of the deceased.  The unclaimed estate could be located anywhere in the world and, quite possibly, in India where those serving in the military and working in India pre 1947/8 may have invested in hitherto unclaimed shareholdings.

 

If we have emailed or telephoned you, it is possible that you are the beneficiary of the estate of a deceased friend, relative or distant cousin, of whose existence you may not have been aware.  We will explain our research to you and show you the family tree we have created as well as the associated documentation to prove your connection to the deceased.

 

The transmission process of the shares and the estate may seem daunting at first.  At no cost to you, you will be guided by our team throughout the entire process.  We are available seven days a week to talk you through the process to give you total peace of mind.

 

If you have any doubts at all, please raise them with us.  We are completely transparent in our business and our aim is to give you reassurance, accurate information and clarity.

Good research is not only dependent upon the experience and analytical skills of the researcher, it also depends on the quality of resources available. Your forebears may have left relatively little impression on historical record collections for all sorts of reasons, which can sometimes make it challenging to track them down. Many archival records, particularly those in rural Ireland, are often illegible, and sadly depleted with many having faded over time. There are usually multiple variations of surname spellings which may have been transcribed phonetically or completely incorrectly making the genealogist’s research less of an exact science.

For these reasons every research project undertaken is vulnerable to the occasional inaccuracy or discrepancy.   The Forensic Genealogists makes every reasonable effort to verify and cross-reference findings ensuring  the quality of our research is always to a high standard whilst complying with the Genealogical Proof Standard,. We cannot guarantee the accuracy of our findings where supporting evidence is incomplete, ambiguous or unreliable.  If you have any reason to believe that there may be an inaccuracy in the research, please email us with full details. We will then validate your query and will review your research project without extra charges.
