New York,

My client and I live in NC but her aunt passed away in 1987 while resident in a state hospital in Bronx, NY. The will was never probated and the estate was never settled. My client recently found her aunt's financial records in a box and upon further investigation there are over 12 listings as abandoned property with the state. In addition there are some stock certificates that are very old and bank passbooks and need to be researched to determine their value. First and foremost we need help completeing the forms to have my client appointed as Administratrix in order to get more information from the state as to the value of those 12 accounts. Not knowing the exact value of what we are dealing with we don't want to eat up what little there is with legal fees. Any help completeing these forms would be greatly appreciated. You may contact me by phone at 919-844-1981, Brian Biederman or email [email protected] We are not opposed to a contingency agreement if you are willing to do some of or direct the call that need to be made. PS this sound like a great project for a law student.
