No Known Kin

No Known Kin

The Administrator Search

Are you aware of a matter where someone has died intestate and there are no known kin to instruct you to act?

Perhaps a neighbour/in-law/ partner/friend of the Deceased has contacted you and asked for help or a Will has failed. Perhaps you had deputyship for a client which ceased upon their death but before you could locate next of kin.

At this stage, you may be considering referring the matter to the GLD as Bona Vacantia as there is no-one to give you instructions. This would mean your firm losing out on the opportunity to administer the estate and generate fees. Whilst it may appear that there is no family, the opposite is usually true.

The solution is our FREE Administrator Search service. We will undertake research to locate next of kin. We do this at our own risk and expense, with no cost levied against your firm at any point.
