What Is an Heir Search, and When Does a Case Need One
An heir search is a genealogical investigation that identifies and proves every person legally entitled to inherit from an estate. Norby Bandan, founder of HeirPros, explains when a probate case needs one, why the exposure lands on the fiduciary who approves distribution, and what a probate court accepts as proof that the search was reasonable.
