01 What We Do

Dormant accounts, uncashed checks, forgotten deposits. We find them and bring them home.

When businesses lose track of you, your money doesn't disappear - it gets turned over to the California State Controller's Office, where it sits in trust. We search those public records for property belonging to residents across California, contact the owners, and manage the entire claim process on their behalf.

02 How It Works
01

We locate it

We search California's public unclaimed property records and match property to its rightful owners anywhere in California.

02

We reach out

If we believe property belongs to you, we contact you directly, explain exactly what we found, and answer every question before you decide anything.

03

We handle the claim

With your signed agreement, we prepare, file, and track the paperwork with the State Controller's Office. You pay nothing unless your property is recovered - and our fee never exceeds the 10% cap set by California law.

03 Transparency

You never need us to claim what's yours.

California's unclaimed property database is public, and filing a claim yourself is free. Some owners prefer to handle it alone; others would rather have a firm do the work. Either way, the choice is yours - and we think you should know that before we ever ask for your business.

04 Common Questions
What does this cost?+

Nothing upfront. If we recover property for you, our fee is a percentage of the amount recovered, capped at 10% under California Code of Civil Procedure §1582. If nothing is recovered, you owe nothing.

Is this a government agency?+

No. North Bay Asset Recovery is a private firm and is not a government agency, is not affiliated with any government agency, and is not endorsed by the State of California or the State Controller's Office.

Can I just do this myself?+

Yes. The state's search and claim process is free at claimit.ca.gov. Our service exists for owners who prefer someone to handle the search, paperwork, and follow-up for them.

Why did you contact me?+

Because a public record matched your name to property being held by the state. We'll tell you what we found and where we found it before you agree to anything.
