Search California Unclaimed Property — Free
Enter a name exactly as it may have appeared on an old account. We search the State Controller’s published records under every reasonable variant of it, not just the spelling you typed.
This search covers properties worth $100 and above. Smaller properties exist and are claimable — they are on the State’s own site, not in this index. What this covers
15 records carry that name
The 14 shown below are worth $8,353 between them. A match is not proof — the State holds many people with the same name, and establishing which record is yours is the real work of a claim.
The State holds 183 records under the surname Bidwell, worth $108,037. See every city and first name they are recorded under

Showing the 14 most valuable of 15. That is a common name — add a first name or a city to narrow it, and try any former spelling.
Tell us if this name comes up again
Banks and insurers hand accounts to the State Controller roughly twice a year, and the file grows every time. We will keep checking this name against each new file and write to you if it appears.
How You Are Protected
Our fee is capped at ten per cent of what is recovered by Code of Civil Procedure §1582, and nothing is owed until the State Controller has paid you. If we recover nothing, you owe nothing.
There is no deadline. The State holds unclaimed property indefinitely, so nothing here is urgent.
How This Search Differs from the Official One
The State Controller’s own search matches what you type, and nothing else. Ours also finds maiden names, married names, initials, common misspellings, hyphen variants, and business names with and without their suffixes — because the record was created by whoever held the account, not by you.
Every result comes from the Controller’s own published file, which we rebuild weekly. Each one carries the State’s own property ID, so the record you are looking at is traceable to the source rather than to us.
What We Search Under
- Your name as typed, plus initials and middle-name variants
- Maiden and former married names, if you tell us them
- Common misspellings and transposed letters
- Former addresses in California
- Business names with and without Inc., LLC, Co. and DBAs
