Share the Basics
Provide the former owner’s name, property, county, approximate sale date, and your connection to the referral.
Court St. Legal Referral Program
Help a Former California Property Owner Find a Clearer Next Step.
The referral program gives professionals and community connectors a structured way to introduce a potential surplus-funds matter for initial review.
A responsible introduction
The Partner Identifies. Court St. Legal Reviews.
A referral is an introduction—not a promise that funds exist, the person qualifies, or compensation is available. Each matter begins with records and identity verification.
Initial Records Review
Court St. Legal evaluates the available trustee, court, and official public information.

If further research appears appropriate, the referred person receives a request for information and explanation of the next step.

Referral compensation
Separate Written Terms Protect Every Participant.

Any compensation, attorney referral, or fee-sharing arrangement must be stated in a separate written agreement and comply with licensing, professional-responsibility, advertising, privacy, and consumer-protection requirements.
