Were You Contacted by Golden Gate Asset Recovery?
If So, We Have Discovered Money We Believe Belongs to You....
The state of California holds billions of dollars of unclaimed funds -- owned by individuals, companies and organizations often unaware the state has
their money. These accounts were transferred to the state by banks, brokerage firms, insurance and other companies that were unable to locate their
owners. Using often-extensive online research we find the owners, or heirs, then help them claim their money, just as we can do for you.
TRUST
WHY USE GOLDEN GATE?
Why trust us? Golden Gate Asset Recovery is registered with the state of California (under the name of its founder, Rich Lee) and is a member of the Unclaimed Property Professionals Organization. Also, we never ask for clients' bank information and they never pay us anything out of pocket. The state sends our fee directly to us as a percentage of the account account being claimed. (See FAQ below for more fee information.)
EXPERIENCE
Claiming money from the state can be confusing and time-consuming. Our knowledge of and experience with the claim process helps us work quickly and efficiently, and saves our clients from having to spend many hours, days and weeks working on an often-difficult and frustrating undertaking. And our job isn't done when the claim is submitted. We work with both our clients and the state, if necessary, until the end -- the day claimants receive their money!

FAQ
How do you find account owners?
We use a number of online investigative tools and websites,
both those restricted to investigators and those available to the public, to locate owners.
What if the original owner of the property is deceased?
Proof that the claimant is the beneficiary of and/or
has the legal right to claim the account must be established with documentation.
I'm concerned about privacy. Is my information safe?
We know how important privacy is. We never ask our clients for personal financial information. We only ask for specific information the state requires. And Rich, the founder of Golden Gate, is the only person who has access to your information.
What is your fee?
Our fee is 10% of the value of the account(s), the industry standard. That's it -- there are absolutely no other fees save for the small charge clients pay a notary. And clients pay nothing out of pocket. When the claim is approved, the state mails a check to the claimant worth 90% of the account value and a separate check worth the remaining 10% directly to us. We only get paid if/when our clients do!
Our fee covers what can be a time-intensive process of locating even one account owner or heir among the millions of accounts/owners held by the state and the significant time/involvement we save clients from an often-difficult and frustrating claim process.
How long does it take to receive the money?
The time varies, depending on the type of account. Some claims can be paid in as little as two to three months; most take longer,
up to six months or more, depending on the documentation required and how many claims the state is processing at any particular time.
Testimonials
"I recently deposited my check from the State! It would not have happened without Rich. I already knew the money it there but had put off claiming it for years. After hearing from Rich and what he would do to help make the claim, I felt I could trust him....and I’m so glad I did! I found Rich to be honest, straightforward and knowledgeable, and he helped make the process easy, just like he said he would." -Brooke Partridge/CEO, Vital Wave
"Hi Rich, I want to extend a "big thanks" for your efforts! I received a letter from the State Controller’s office stating the package you submitted consisting of 10 claims, in excess of $40,000, has been approved. I know at least 2 were challenging but your knowledge of negotiating the processes have closed all the claims in my favor. Additionally, you were so easy to work with. I very much appreciated your patience and professionalism. Thanks again, Rich." -F. Whiteman/Poway, CA
