What does Lucky Legacies do?
Lucky Legacies possesses expertise in the identification and retrieval of surplus or overage funds stemming from tax or foreclosure sales. Subsequently, we extend our assistance to the rightful owners, aiding them in reclaiming these funds and ensuring they are restored to their possession.
Why do I want your help?
The funds held by government agencies are not publicly disclosed or searchable through online platforms. While certain state websites may list unclaimed funds, the funds we have uncovered do not appear there. Attempting to locate them independently without the assistance of a professional service like ours offers only a limited chance of success accross a limited time frame.
How could someone owe me money?
In the event of a property auction, there are instances where the sale exceeds the obligations owed to creditors and lien holders. We firmly advocate that the surplus amount be rightfully returned to the homeowner or their heirs. However, failure to claim these funds within the prescribed deadlines established by each state results in their forfeiture to the government, rendering them irretrievable.
Is this going to cost me allot of money?
There are no upfront fees involved when working with us. We cover all expenses related to filing the claim and recovering the funds. Our payment is contingent upon successfully recovering the money for you. In the rare event that we are unable to recover the funds, you will not be charged anything. We receive our payment from a portion of the funds recovered, ensuring that the majority goes directly to you, the client.
How does Lucky Legacies know about these surplus funds?
We diligently examine government agencies across the entire nation to uncover excess funds that rightfully belong to individual citizens.
How do you know the surplus funds belong to me?
Upon uncovering overage funds, we employ a range of research techniques, skip tracing methods, and thorough internet searches to successfully trace and locate the rightful owner.
If I am owed money, how long unil you can get it for me?
Procedures and guidelines vary among different counties.
The timeline for receiving your funds after filing your claim can vary depending on the county and the nature of your claim. It may take as little as 120 days or more. To expedite the process, it is essential for you to promptly sign and return all necessary paperwork, enabling us to prioritize your case.
Your swift response in returning the signed documents allows us to work efficiently with the legal team to move your case forward for consideration by a judge.
Throughout the year, we have observed certain periods when some counties experience increased caseloads, resulting in potential delays of 8-10 weeks before your case can be scheduled for court. By assisting us in expediting the necessary processes, we can optimize our efforts to ensure efficiency and effectiveness for our clients.
Rest assured, we will keep you informed about the specific circumstances and wait times related to your county, providing timely updates as soon as we receive notice of any changes in the expected timeframes.
