This foundational service is designed for clients seeking a quick assessment of potential recoverable assets. Our team conducts a thorough scan of public databases, government records, and financial institutions to identify any easily accessible funds linked to your identity or estate.
The audit delivers a comprehensive report listing all discovered assets, their current custodians, and estimated values. This service serves as both an introduction to our methodology and a low-cost entry point for larger investigations.
Beyond the preliminary audit, this tier initiates a comprehensive investigation into leads identified in Level I. Our team engages in formal correspondence with banks, government agencies, and legal entities to validate claims and initiate recovery processes.
The $240 deposit covers administrative expenses including certified mailings, filing fees, and dedicated analyst hours. Upon successful recovery, a success fee of 10% to 30% (based on complexity) is applied. All additional costs are transparently reported and confirmed with the client before proceeding.
This tier is ideal for clients with moderate-value assets requiring professional mediation and documented verification.
Reserved for the most complex and high-value cases, this elite tier deploys our full operational capacity. Investigations may involve international travel, private detective work, and access to proprietary databases unavailable through standard channels.
Our legal partners handle all court proceedings, ensuring compliance with jurisdictional laws and maximising recovery potential. The $1,200 engagement fee secures exclusive resources for your case, including senior analysts and legal counsel.
Success fees range from 10% to 50%, contingent on case difficulty and asset value. This tier is suited for contested inheritances, dormant corporate assets, or multi-jurisdictional claims requiring sustained legal and investigative effort.
Throughout the process, clients receive regular updates and must approve any extraordinary expenses before they are incurred, maintaining complete transparency and control.
Tax overages (also called surplus funds or excess proceeds) are funds remaining after a property is sold at a tax sale for more than the amount owed in delinquent taxes. The original property owner or their heirs may be entitled to reclaim these funds. Cheriton Management specialises in identifying and recovering these funds through legal proceedings.
Unclaimed inheritances often result from estates where heirs could not be located, wills that were not properly executed, or funds held by courts and government agencies. Cheriton Management uses advanced genealogical research and intelligence techniques to trace rightful heirs and facilitate the claims process.
We recover tax sale overages, foreclosure surplus funds, unclaimed inheritance, dormant bank accounts, abandoned financial assets, court surplus funds, forgotten insurance proceeds, and unclaimed pension or retirement funds. Our services cover jurisdictions worldwide.
Cheriton Management operates on a contingency basis for most cases. You pay nothing upfront — our fee is a percentage of the funds successfully recovered, ensuring our interests are aligned with yours.
Recovery timelines vary depending on the complexity of the case, the jurisdiction involved, and the type of funds being recovered. Simple tax overage claims may resolve in 30-90 days, while complex inheritance cases involving multiple jurisdictions can take 6-18 months.
