Description

The Contract to Locate Unclaimed Assets is a formal agreement between a client and a company specializing in asset recovery. This contract facilitates the identification and retrieval of unclaimed properties that the client may not be aware they own, such as overbid funds or properties from a decedent's estate. Key features of this contract include the nature of work, which obligates the company to use its best efforts to locate the client's assets, and the payment structure, where compensation is either a percentage of the asset's value or a purchase price agreed upon by both parties. Importantly, the agreement has a one-year duration and establishes the company as an independent contractor, rather than an employee of the client. Additionally, any disputes arising from the contract must be resolved through mandatory arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants who are involved in asset recovery or estate management, as it provides a clear framework for collaboration and lays out expectations for both parties involved.
