By using Hoopers' probate research and genealogy services you benefit in the following ways:

1. We are ready to research for you on a no-find, no-fee basis.
2. Or we can work to an agreed fee at a reasonable hourly rate.
3. We will provide an initial report promptly, and subsequent reports regularly.
4. We have an unsurpassed track record of bringing beneficiaries and their money together wherever they may be, starting with the smallest amount of information, and at no risk to our solicitor clients.

We are often employed by lawyers and trustees who are having problems in settling an estate. The legal profession relies on our skills and experience in probate research to identify missing beneficiaries.

But genealogy – the science of tracing family trees – is seldom straightforward.

So it is little wonder that our case files sometimes read like sensational novels. They include gender swaps, bigamous or secret marriages and the reuniting of long-lost brothers and sisters.
