Hi, I'm [Your name].
I wrote to you.
The State of California publishes the names of people it's holding money for: old bank accounts, uncashed checks, refunds, insurance payouts. Your name is on that list. I run Duly Claims from Lake County, California, and I help neighbors get that money back.
You can claim it yourself, free, at claimit.ca.gov. If you'd rather not deal with the forms, I'll handle it for you.
Phone: [(707) 555-0100]
If you'd like my help
- We talk. I tell you exactly what the State is holding for you and how much, before you sign anything.
- I bring the paperwork to you. A short agreement and the State's claim form, already filled in. A mobile notary can come too.
- The State pays you directly. My 10% fee comes as its own check from the State. You never pay me anything.
How to know this is real
- ✓I never ask for money upfront, and I never ask for bank or card details.
- ✓You can look up your own name at claimit.ca.gov before you ever call me.
- ✓I'm a private local business, not the government, and I'll always say so.
- ✓Bring a family member to any conversation. I'd welcome it.

Are you part of the government?
No. Duly Claims is a small private business in Lake County, California. We're not affiliated with the California State Controller's Office or any government agency.
I got a card from you. Is this real?
Yes. The State publishes the names of people and businesses it's holding money for, and we contact them. You can check for yourself, free, at claimit.ca.gov before you ever talk to us. We never ask for money upfront, and we never ask for bank details.
Can I claim it myself for free?
Yes. Anyone can search and file at claimit.ca.gov at no cost. If yours is a simple claim, that's often the easiest route, and we'll tell you so.
How exactly do you get paid?
Our fee is 10% of what's recovered, written into a short agreement you see before anything is filed. On cash claims, the State issues your share and our fee as separate checks, so you never pay us directly.
What happens if a claim is denied?
You owe nothing. There's no retainer, no upfront fee and no invoice. We only get paid from approved claims.
Will you ask for my Social Security number?
Only where the State's own claim form requires it, filled in together with you when you sign. Never over the phone, by text or by email.
How long does the State take?
It varies. The State reviews every claim, and some take several months. We track each one and answer the State's follow-up questions for you.
What do you need from me?
A signature on the agreement, a photo ID, and usually a notarized signature on the State's claim form. We can bring a mobile notary to you. Businesses also need a few company documents, which we'll list for you. We prepare everything else.
