We got a letter from the state after my father passed away stating that he had ESOP with a value of $5,400 at his last job. We contacted the employer to inherit it but said they couldn’t do much since my father never put a benifeicary. My dad never left a will and didn’t hold property when he passed away. Would you be able to help me with this matter or is there nothing I can do ?
If that is the only asset of your father's estate to transfer, then you should be able to use an affidavit procedure under Probate Code section 13100. Contact an attorney for a full consultation.
