A: A New Mexico attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. It could depend what kind of property is involved. Many state comptroller's offices have online resources for unclaimed funds. These usually involve unclaimed checks for public utility bills and similar payments. That process is fairly simple and straightforward if you could help your mother with it. If the unclaimed property matter is more complex, such as real property, a real estate law attorney might be able to help. Good luck
