A measured approach

Complex ownership questions deserve careful preparation.

01

Research with care

We share general information about California unclaimed-property resources and the kinds of ownership questions people may encounter.

02

Use official resources

The California State Controller provides a free direct path to search for and claim eligible unclaimed property.

03

Protect your information

Do not send sensitive information or documents through this site or email while operating procedures are under review.

Important California disclosure

You do not need to hire us to search for or claim unclaimed property.

California residents can search for and claim unclaimed property directly through the California State Controller's Office at no charge. Heritage Asset Recovery is an independent private business, is not affiliated with the California State Controller's Office, is not a law firm, does not provide legal advice, and does not guarantee any claim, recovery, or outcome.

Information safeguard

Please keep sensitive materials off this site and email.

While procedures are under review, do not send SSNs, bank details, ID images, account numbers, signatures, or documents. Use the State Controller's official resources for direct claim information.
