Gustafson Gluek Investigating Heir Location Services

Gustafson Gluek is investigating a case against the heir location services industry.  Heir location services firms identify people who may be entitled to an inheritance from the estate of a relative who died without a will.  The heir location service firms then help heirs secure their inheritances in exchange for a contingency fee paid out of the inheritances they are due to receive.Two executives and one company have agreed to plead guilty to criminal charges for colluding to allocate customers and fix prices.  A purchaser of heir location services between 1999 and 2014 from Brandenburger & Davis, Blake and Blake Genealogists and possibly other firms may be entitled to a recovery.The Department of Justice has issued the following press releases:http://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/president-heir-location-services-provider-plead-guilty-agreement-not-competehttp://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/first-charges-brought-investigation-collusion-among-heir-location-services-firms
