    In the news

    Recently, the Louisiana Treasury returned a record-breaking $904,000 in unclaimed money to citizens in the Greater New Orleans area at their one-day event at Lakeside Shopping Mall. Currently, there is more than $1 billion in Louisiana Treasury’s Unclaimed Property Program, and $300 million is owed to residents in the New Orleans area. Unclaimed property funds come from businesses that turn over millions of dollars in unclaimed cash, stocks, bonds, securities, and insurance proceeds to the Louisiana State Treasurer’s office. These funds include payroll checks, old bank accounts, royalties, utility deposits, interest payments, stock certificates, and life insurance proceeds. One in six Louisianans has unclaimed property. One of the main reasons an item becomes unclaimed property is an incorrect or old address. Over the past fifty years, Louisiana’s Unclaimed Property Program has issued 1.38 million unclaimed property checks, totaling $727 million, to the rightful owners.

     

    The National Association Of Unclaimed Property Administrators announced that $4,832,614,233 was returned by states in 2022. Further, they estimate that over 33 million people in the U.S. (nearly 1 in 7) currently have unclaimed property.

     

    A newspaper in the Kansas City metropolitan area recently reported that there is approximately $49.5 billion of unclaimed property in the United States. It stated there the source of these funds can vary. Often the death of a relative is the cause of property going unclaimed. Other causes include accounts that have been abandoned or simply forgotten. Bank accounts, 401(k)s and similar investments where the legal owner is unknown, are often turned over to the State as unclaimed property. Insurance or inheritance payouts are also commonly sent to these State Treasury accounts until the rightful owner appears to claim them.

     

    Testimonials

    My husband and I were experiencing financial hard times when the Company contacted us about making a claim. With their guidance, we pursued it, and they kept us informed every step of the way. In about three months, we received a check for $13,626! This was enough for us to pay off all our credit cards, buy some much-needed furniture, and start improving our credit scores. Thanks!

    Years ago, I worked as a paralegal, yet was not aware that we might be eligible to receive money resulting from an event from years past. We received over $6,000 thanks to the efforts of our Claim Specialist at Surplus Recovery Agents, LLC. This unexpected money helped us relocate to Florida, so we could be nearer to our grandchildren.

    A. Hayes

    We had no idea that money was owed to us. At first, we were skeptical, but after they explained everything, we decided to apply for it. With them working on our behalf, we received $8,494 in less than four months. My family will be forever grateful. Thank you.

    Had the Company not contacted me, I never would have known that I was owed about $17,000. Once they explained the process, I figured I had everything to gain and nothing to lose. This was an immense help when I needed it. Thank you for your dedicated efforts on my behalf.
