Unclaimed Property
This sort of thing happens, but is far from common. What I see the most in my practice is people who are heirs to an estate where the person died intestate (without a will). If we can prove heirship (relationship of my client to the decedent) the client receives the money rather than it going to the state. This happens most often when the family has been broken up and family members have lost track of each other. The family stories are fascinating but most often very sad.
