Common client questions
“Why wasn’t I made aware of my surplus funds?”- The county sends out surplus notifications letters, but most of the time it's to the last address on record (the foreclosed property) so you are never informed.
How much will this cost me? - The beauty of working with us is that we charge NO upfront fees and only get paid a finders fee upon a successful claim, so you bear no risk at all.
How much is the fee upon a successful claim? Robin Hood Asset Recovery will receive a fee between 10-33.3 percent depending on the variables of the case as well as the state regulations.
What about the legal/filing fees?- We understand that legal fees can be a major concern when pursuing funds. To alleviate this worry, we take care of all legal fees associated with the claim. Our team of licensed attorneys possesses the expertise needed to handle the legal aspects of the process. This allows our clients to have peace of mind, knowing that their claim is being handled by professionals who will navigate any legal complexities on their behalf.
How did you get all of my information?- We work directly with county treasury departments to receive all potential client documentation, foreclosure, surplus and property information as well as payment upon a successful claim.
Can I just file the claim myself? - Yes, usually you can file the claim yourself. However, many individuals who attempt filing these claims themselves end up having their claim rejected and therefore working with an asset recovery service anyway. Asset recovery professionals file these claims day in and day out and have close relationships with attorneys with a variety of legal skill sets that may be required on a case by case basis. For example, if a case involves a deceased individual the case would require an estate attorney and cost thousands out of pocket in probate court fees. With Robin Hood Asset Recovery by your side you can sit back and relax with zero upfront fees while our expert attorneys and asset recovery professionals fight for you inside and outside of the courtroom.
How long will it take to get paid?- These are legal claims so it usually will take anywhere from 2 weeks to 3 months for the county/state to disperse funds.
