: : : : Ward,

: : : : I door knocked on a great property that is in foreclosure.

: : : : the neighbor kid came up and said that the guy had died 6 months ago. His girlfriend moved out and his 2 young kids moved to L.A.

: : : : How do I go about finding if this is in probate, or if it was willed to someone how do I find them??

: : : : title is still in the dead owners name and the property is about 2 weeks into the NOD....

: : : : Just looking for a starting point.

: : : : thanks

: : : : Zachary

: : : Zachary,

: : : You can go to the LA County Central Superior Court, Probate Dept. #258, 111 N. Hill Street, L.A. search for filing for decedent. If no probate open, contact me directly. The big question(s) to ask whoever is at the residence are:
: : : 1) Have the heirs filed a probate case (and in what court?)
: : : 2) Did the decedent leave a will? (and whose is named to received what?)
: : : 3) Did the decedent receive Medi-Cal (Calif Dept of Health Services) benefits?
: : : 4) If probate was opened, get a Certified copu of "Probate Letters" and determine who the Personal Rep. is and if he/she/they have FULL I.A.E.A. POWERS?

: : : This will take you a long way to working this file and you'll learn a lot in the process.
: : : (If you need to contact me, I'll be out of town 8/8 and returning 8/12.
: : : Good luck
