Kemp and Associates is a group of forensic genealogists that investigates estates to ensure that all eligible beneficiaries are identified and accounted for -- that no heirs have been overlooked. Our principal product is peace of mind for attorneys, trustees and other fiduciaries that have been vested with the legal duty to distribute the correct share to the correct heir. Since 1966 we have documented the interests of thousands of heirs.
Searches are made at our own expense. We are compensated by the unknown or missing heirs by way of agreements assigning us a percentage of their shares. This relieves fiduciaries of expensive and time-consuming genealogical groping, while ensuring that the diligent search requirement is satisfied. No fiduciary can have a greater incentive than we do. We go without pay if we fail.
Kemp and Associates is the only firm within walking distance of the largest genealogical library in the world, the Family History Library. We also have an extensive and continually growing library within our office. Dozens of skilled researchers throughout the world are also at our immediate disposal. These resources allow us to compile evidence of heirship and make legally admissible exhibits and genealogical charts available for use in court.
If you have an estate with missing or unknown heirs, we would be happy to discuss your case. Please e-mail us at contactus@kempandassociates.com or reach us by telephone at 801-532-5800.
