NYC Heir Finder Lawyers
Nothing about death is easy, and the attorneys at Raiser & Kenniff, PC, work with the difficult situations that arise following death every day. It’s not always easy to handle life when a loved one passes away, but what happens when a loved one passes away and their heirs cannot be located and notified of your death? If you have children, a spouse, or anyone else in your life you’d like to leave things to in your will, you should know where they are. However, it’s not always possible to find them, and sometimes life situations are very unique. Perhaps you have children and a spouse to whom you’d like to leave everything in your will save for $10,000 you’d like to send to your first love.
It’s difficult when your first love is no longer somewhere anyone can easily find them, and that is when an heir finder attorney from Raiser & Kenniff, PC, is helpful. Not every situation is so extreme a former lover is being left monetary bequests in a will, but it happens. It might be an old kindergarten teacher, neighbor, or friend, but it’s always difficult if the person named in a will cannot be located.
Leaving Behind Heirs
If you have a will and you name someone as an heir, they might not be so easy to find when it’s time to provide them their inheritance. If they cannot be located, finding an attorney who can locate that person is necessary. If you pass away without a will, your death becomes intestate. This means your estate is handled according to New York law, and your immediate family is now your heir. Even if you didn’t want them to get a dime of your money, they will according to state laws if you do not have a valid will in place.
If you are looking for a lawyer that listens, is aggressive where needed, and holds his word above all else, Todd is the best pick. I had hired multiple attorneys prior to hiring the Spodek Group for a white collar case. The first thing that stood out to me was the cost, as anyone going through the process and dealing with the system, money was tight at that time - especially after hiring and firing multiple lawyers. The cost was not as high as others which was definitely a plus. Todd's intake process was also unlike other attorneys. He took the time to actually listen. He cared. He was trying to put himself in my shoes while I was explaining the situation to him and he really took the time to understand the whole situation. Other lawyers will give you 15 mins and send you a retainer agreement. Not Todd, I think he spent almost two hours with me as I was explaining everything.Not only was he great during the onboarding process, he was supportive and very informative through the entire plea process and eventually sentencing. After hiring him, I asked if I should hire a prison consultant, he told me to save my money as he would do everything they would. He was right and held up to his word. Later on I would hear from others that went with the prison consultants that they were a waste of money - I am glad I listened to Todd!When it came time for sentencing, two days prior to sentencing, the prosecutor tried increasing my proposed prison time by almost double - apparently a normal move. Todd and his team worked with me non-stop through the weekend prior to sentencing to ensure that I was not given additional prison time. Again, he took the time to listen and came up with a strategy to explain the case with great detail.Unfortunately, I did plead guilty as that was my best option. Todd and his whole team wrote up nearly 300 pages of a summary of what happened and why I should not be given prison time. If I breakdown the amount I spent with Todd versus the amount of work that I saw being done, I am shocked I was not charged four times as much. The other benefit was, a lot of criminal defense lawyers were just a single attorney with a paralegal or two. Todd had a team of people that I dealt with (5-7 people that I interacted with), but he was ALWAYS accessible. It would never take him more than an hour to reply unless he was in court.I was sentenced to prison and I was emotionally distraught. Todd and his team did whatever they could even after sentencing to make sure I was alright. He personally stayed in touch with my family to ensure I was doing alright and offered support to them. Most lawyers would consider the job complete at sentencing, not Todd.After prison, Todd still spent time with me to make sure I was on the right track and avoiding any potential risks in the future. He has also been giving advice on how to navigate probation etc and has not been looking at the clock for billing.Although I wish I had never been arrested in the first place, I am glad I had Todd and his team in my corner. Without them I likely would have had to spend a lot more time in prison than I did.Thank you, Todd, and the entire Spodek Law team, for helping turn what was a nightmare into a manageable situation!

I don’t know where to start, I can write a novel about this firm, but one thing I will say is that having my best interest was their main priority since the beginning of my case which was back in Winter 2019. Miss Claire Banks, one of the best Attorneys in the firm represented me very well and was very professional, respectful, and truthful. Not once did she leave me in the dark, in fact she presented all options and routes that could possibly be considered for my case and she reinsured me that no matter what I decided to do, her and the team will have my back and that’s exactly what happened. Not only will I be liberated from this case, also, I will enjoy my freedom and continue to be a mother to my first born son and will have no restrictions with accomplishing my goals in life. Now that’s what I call victory!! I thank the Lord, My mother, Claire, and the Spodek team for standing by me and fighting with me. Words can’t describe how grateful I am to have the opportunity to work with this team. I’m very satisfied, very pleased with their performance, their hard work, and their diligence.Thank you team!
I recently had Spodek Law Group represent me for a legal matter in NYC and I am thoroughly impressed with their services.Alex Zhik secured the best possible outcome for my case.It was a seamless journey from the initial consultation to the resolution of my legal matter. From the moment I spoke to Todd about my case, his enthusiasm to help was evident, setting a positive tone for the entire experience. The efficiency and professionalism displayed by the team is commendable.A particularly noteworthy aspect of their service is their user-friendly portal to upload your documents/evidence. This not only simplified the process, but showcases their commitment to streamline the client experience.Lastly, in an industry where legal fees can often be a concern, I found their pricing to be very reasonable, making needing legal assistance feel accessible and stress-free.I am grateful for their support and wouldn't hesitate to turn to them again in the future.
If your beneficiaries are not easily located, there could be some problems. Your estate will go into probate as it is meant to do according to the law, but it’s difficult to settle. Closing an estate is impossible when one or more heirs to your estate are unreachable. An experienced heir finder attorney can help you find someone before your estate becomes problematic.
If your loved one left an heir in their will, you are also free to hire an attorney to find that person. Your loved one might not be with you any longer, but it’s necessary you find someone who can help you with this act so that the estate can be closed and you can all work on moving on. It’s often difficult to move on when the estate doesn’t settle as it should. An attorney can help you find someone who is named as an heir or is an heir according to state laws.
How An Attorney Can Help
During the probate process, there are numerous legal issues that might occur. The heir finding process is rarely easy, and things might become far more complicated. If the heir, for example, decides to contest things once located, it can make your life difficult as you work on grieving the loss of a loved one. If the heir decides to hire his or her own attorney while simultaneously refusing to sign anything, it can become complicated.
It’s always better for your loved one to leave a will or for you to leave one so your heirs don’t go through this process. An attorney can help you draft a will so you’re not left wondering how you will make your estate easier on your kids. Your attorney also helps you find heirs you’d like to leave a bequest to upon your death prior to your death so your kids and grandchildren are not faced with this problem on their own.
