Heir & Beneficiary Search Services in New York
Easton Secure Solutions LLC locates missing heirs and unknown beneficiaries for probate and intestate estates throughout New York.

Every search is documented and court-ready, supporting the diligent-search obligation the Surrogate's Court requires and protecting the estate from future claims.
Heir & Beneficiary Search Services We Provide
Missing Heir Search
When an heir named in a will or entitled under New York intestacy law cannot be located, the estate stalls. We identify and locate missing and unknown heirs through skip tracing, public records research, and genealogical analysis, then verify identity and relationship to the decedent.
Beneficiary Search
We locate named and unknown beneficiaries for estates, trusts, and unclaimed property matters. Each result includes verified contact information and documentation suitable for submission to the court or estate file.
Probate & Intestate Research
For intestate estates with no will, we research the decedent's family structure to establish the class of legal heirs under New York law. Our findings give executors and administrators a defensible basis for distribution.
Court-Ready Documentation
Executors and administrators must show a good-faith, diligent effort to locate every heir. We compile a written report detailing the search performed, sources reviewed, and verified findings, suitable for filing and to support the record before New York Surrogate's Court.
