The total amount of unclaimed money in California averages five billion dollars annually – just imagine the amount of interest this accrues for the state! Bill Palmer, an attorney in Sacramento who has represented numerous cases involving California unclaimed property, has said that the state’s department was intended to be a lost and found for residents of California. Sadly, it was turned into a profit making ‘business’ in recent years.

The hold on the seizure of property by CA has now been lifted and the new CA State Controller, John Chiang, is making extra efforts in the form of widespread changes in improving how his office handles CA unclaimed money. There’s still a dire need though for Californians and Americans in all states across the U.S. to learn about the presence of these properties and on how to perform a thorough search for them and take back what belongs to them.
