Laws pertaining to unclaimed property offer guidelines about what businesses are to do with the property after having it in their possession for a certain amount of time. The law requires that a business turn over such property to the state. The state is then responsible for returning the property to its rightful owner.

To facilitate the process of finding unclaimed property, the state, or third parties hired by the state, conducts audits of businesses. When it finds what it believes to be unclaimed property, it will attempt collection of that property.

Often, these unclaimed property claims come without warning. A business may not be aware of the law, it may have already returned the property but not recorded it properly, or state workers may have misread the materials they were auditing. If your business has been contacted by the state about collection of unclaimed property that you feel is unjust, our attorneys can help.

Contact our experienced property claims lawyers at 717-238-5707 for a free initial consultation. We are available to assist businesses throughout the country, including Carlisle and Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.

We understand unclaimed property laws. One of our attorneys was previously employed by the treasury department, in the Bureau of Unclaimed Property. In that position, he was responsible for finding and collecting unclaimed property. Now, he brings that experience to work for businesses that are facing unclaimed property claims. We truly understand the tactics and methodology used by the state in these cases. We can help protect you against it.

At McCarthy Weisberg Cummings, our lawyers are dedicated to helping you in these situations.
