Forensic Genealogy
Do you need a professional forensic genealogist to correctly verify or identify individuals for probate, trust, real estate title, or mineral rights cases?
The Heritage Bridge team assists law offices, courts, insurance companies, banks and trust companies, guardians, executors, investigators, oil and gas companies, and other private firms to locate missing and unknown heirs and next-of-kin. We follow the ethical standards of the field and are contracted at an hourly rate, with no interest in the outcome of the case. Our work varies from a few hours to locate a missing heir to longer, complete kinship projects.
Services Include:
Expert research completed to genealogical standards
Professionally written, source-cited genealogy research reports
Exhibits: descendancy charts and images of documents that establish kinship
Affidavits of kinship and due diligence
Locating a missing heir

Did You Know? If you suspect there are heirs but have been told there are none—have us do a complimentary check. We can usually establish the likelihood of heirs within an hour.
