Missing beneficiaries ....
An estate cannot close until every legal heir is found, not most of them.
Every single one.
That sounds straightforward until you work in probate and realise how complicated family pictures actually are. People emigrate and lose touch; relationships end without clean documentation. Children are born into circumstances that kept them off the family’s radar for decades. Relatives who were mentioned once, in passing, and then never again.
Every one of those gaps is a potential entitled heir. And until they’re located, verified, and accounted for, the estate sits in limbo along with everyone else waiting to move on.
At Pro-Gen Research, tracing missing beneficiaries is the core of what we do. We persevere in locating all beneficiaries for as long as it takes us to close the gap properly with a legally sound evidence chain, not guesswork.
