      We are very sorry to see you have not had a good experience with American Research Bureau. We pride ourselves on the excellent service we provide our clients. Your particular case has been held up in the courts due to various reasons for the past few years, which we understand is frustrating. As we await the court decision on disbursements from the decedent's estate, we hope you understand we are at the mercy of the courts and these delays have been due to their timing.  We strive to make the client experience as positive as possible and we apologize this experience has been a disappointment.  I trust our conversations will lead to a satisfactory outcome for you.

      I was contacted by ARB regarding a distant family member that I didn't have confirmation existed. I researched them before calling them back to make sure it wasn't a scam. Since being contacted they have been very informative and even ordered documents that I didn't have. The research is still in process but all communication so far has been professional and informative. It's just the beginning of the process but I would absolutely recommend ARB for their professionalism and their explanation of the process.

      This firm handled everything very well. The communicated very clearly, kept me informed and updated, and explained the process every step of the way. They answered all of my e-mails almost immediately and were very friendly.

      Everyone was very professional and friendly. They handled all the details as presented in their contract. Although it seemed to take forever, I understand this is normal. It was, of course, worth the wait.

      An absolute gem of a company whose professionalism in estate matters is exceptional At first was doubtful of their legitimacy but after some due diligence, they are exactly what they say they are. A marvellous organisation doing an incredible job. If you should hear from them regarding a potential inheritance proceed and engage with this organisation. A five star company !

      Thought at first this wasnt real and probably a scammer so we hesitated to give information to them but they did a great job and delivered our inheritance that we didnt know existed. They kept us informed every step of the way. We are appreciative.
