<p class="MsoNormal">Listmates, I may be handling an estate that escheats. I understand the State makes a prima facie case for escheat by proving death, nonmarriage, intestacy and “diligent futile search by the state for heirs.” I am looking for referrals to
heir search firms for my diligent (but most likely futile) heir search – thank you - Shannon<o:p></o:p></p>
