Finders International

Founded in 1997, Finders International is the UK’s largest probate genealogy firm. We trace missing heirs and beneficiaries to estates, property, funds, and assets across the globe.

In the private sector, we support solicitors, accountants, trustees, and financial institutions by locating vital documents and information needed to progress or resolve cases.

To help mitigate risk in estate administration, we also offer a suite of Legal Support and International Asset Services including Overseas Bankruptcy Searches, Medallion Signature Guarantees, Missing Document Services, and Missing, Dormant & Unclaimed Asset Searches — helping professionals meet due diligence requirements with confidence.

Each year, we handle hundreds of pro-bono cases; reuniting families separated by war or adoption, and restoring treasured items like lost war medals and family heirlooms.

We were named UK Probate Research Firm of the Year at the 2025 Probate Industry Awards, and took home the Supporting the Industry award at the 2024 Modern Law Awards. We also proudly won UK Probate Research Firm of the Year at the 2023 British Wills and Probate Awards.

With headquarters in London and offices in Yorkshire, Cardiff, Edinburgh, Dublin, and Sydney, our global reach is backed by membership in IAPPR — the International Association of Professional Probate Researchers.

We are also proud recipients of the Feefo Gold Trusted Service Award, recognising our commitment to consistently exceptional client service.
