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.

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.
A Second State File
1 probate estate carries that name
Separately from unclaimed accounts, the State Controller publishes the estates of deceased people that reached it through county probate. This file names the decedent and the heirs on record, which the main file does not.
1 more under that name that can no longer be claimed
When an estate goes unclaimed long enough, the State takes permanent title to it and no claim will be paid afterwards. These are shown because knowing what happened to a relative’s estate is worth something even when the money is gone. Nobody can recover these — if a firm offers to, that alone tells you what they are.

Kates Julio Mendoza
Matched on Kates Julio Mendoza (decedent)
2 heirs named on the State’s record
Permanently escheated — the State now owns this and it cannot be claimed.
$0.00 closedState ID 970971482
Case s 1500 pb 54816
Fees on probated estates are not capped by the ten per cent rule that governs ordinary unclaimed property. How estate claims work, including what we would charge and why the difference exists.
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
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.
California Unclaimed Property Services is a private asset recovery firm. We are not the California State Controller’s Office.

Give us a name and we will check the State Controller’s records under every reasonable variant of it. Asking costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
