You likely did not discover our website by accident; being contacted by a probate research company is not an everyday occurrence. You may have several questions about who we are, what we do, and about your role as a potential heir. We are here to address your most pressing concerns and to inform you about our work and the probate process.

Not everyone leaves behind close family members who are entitled to inherit. Aside from the decedent’s personal relationships, there are several possible reasons for this, for example the estrangement of families through migration, mostly at the beginning of the 20th century, or the current global trend of movement. Whatever your family history may be: you have been sought after, and we were successfully able to locate you.

You are an heir and, in most cases, part of a community of heirs consisting of several people. As such, you are also a participant in the probate procedure. We are here to assist you during this process – from the presentation of your claim in court, up to the distribution of your share of the inheritance. We place significant value on transparency, and pledge to be a reliable partner.

We are delighted to have found you and look forward to guiding you through the probate process.

OUR SERVICES

We will keep you informed every step of the way, from the initial research to the judicial proceedings, and finally the settlement of the estate.

For the probate court to recognize your heirship, it will be necessary for us to fulfill numerous court mandated requirements. These include, but are not limited to: accurately identifying your eligibility to inherit; file notice and objections with the court on your behalf; present an accurate and complete genealogy with accompanying evidence documentation; petition for and represent your interests during kinship hearing(s); adhere to oral testimony and witness directives; effect distribution.

At our sole expense, we have retained kinship attorneys to act on your behalf throughout the judicial proceedings.

COMPENSATION

When we take on an estate matter we work at our own risk, covering all costs that ensue during the process, including attorney fees and legal costs.

Our fee is based on a contingency percentage agreed upon with you and is only due once the inheritance is successfully distributed. We will not ask you for any upfront payments or additional fees.

Emrich International Probate Research Inc has representation on the East and West Coast. Our research team comprises professional genealogists and investigators who employ all available resources – libraries and archives, online databases, and our international network of correspondents.

Our documentation specialists, trained on the retrieval and presentation of court mandated records and documents, purposefully compile the evidentiary documents to substantiate the heirs’ relationship with the decedent.

Case managers, appointed to each estate, work closely with our retained kinship attorneys to move the case through the judicial process to the eventual estate settlement. Case managers and their assistants are readily available for any questions or concerns you may have throughout the process.

The Emrich Group’s team includes more than 100 colleagues around the world. They are all experts in their field and work precisely and transparently in order to uphold our high quality standards and to ensure that your rightful claim to the inheritance is established.
