On intestacy, it is highly advisable to reconstruct a family tree to ensure all entitled people are included and unentitled people are excluded.

Title Research’s approach to quoting aims to provide clients with the most accurate advice. As part of their free Research Assessment Report*, they may need to determine how large one or both sides of a family tree will be or ensure that there are no missing or otherwise unknown relatives. With this information, they can estimate how many hours of research it may take to resolve the issue and provide an accurate quote.
