How it works

A straightforward recovery process.

  1. 1

    We verify the property

    We review the Property ID, reported owner, holder, property type, and current availability.

  2. 2

    We identify the proper claimant

    Depending on the facts, the claimant may be the owner, an heir, trustee, executor, administrator, or other authorized party.

  3. 3

    We disclose the property

    Before an agreement is signed, the claimant receives information about the property, its reported value, holder, and the fact that the State Controller holds the property.

  4. 4

    Agreement and documentation

    If the claimant chooses to hire PALOMIRIS, the parties use the appropriate written investigator agreement and gather the required claim documentation.

  5. 5

    Claim submission and follow-up

    We assist with the claim package and respond to documentation requests during review.

About PALOMIRIS

Private research. Clear disclosure. Documentation-driven work.

We do not represent the State of California and cannot guarantee approval or payment of any claim. The State Controller's Office makes the final determination regarding entitlement and payment.

No upfront recovery fee.

Ordinary California abandoned property

Any investigator fee is contingent on recovery and may not exceed 10% of the property actually returned, subject to applicable California law.

Different rules apply to certain County Probated Estate matters.
