After paying the atty fee and being assigned admin, I called his bank to request that funds be wired to my bank. The bank manager told me of the documents I needed to provide to her to proceed. Within a week, I called the bank manager back with one lingering question and was told that she had turned the account over to the state.
Hi Lex, The house was foreclosed, vehicles were returned to financiers, so the only thing remaining was his back account of $7k. Total value? Heirs consisted of Myself, my sister, and my deceased brother; who had 3 children also listed as heirs.
To clarify, La unclaimed property requires the SS and DL of all heirs, so that they can issue checks. If done this way, I am out for the expenses of atty fees.
