Terms and Conditions

Karl WIn Group

Last Updated: May 8, 2026 

 1. Scope of Services & Relationship of Parties 

Karl Win Group ("the Company") provides specialized private investigative and administrative services for asset recovery. These services include searching public records to identify unclaimed surplus funds, locating potential claimants, and preparing administrative documentation required for recovery. 

  • Relationship: The Company acts as an independent contractor. Karl Win Group is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice or legal representation. 
  • Performance-Based: All research and administrative services are provided at no upfront cost to the Client. 

 2. Automatic Legal Coordination & Security

To ensure maximum financial security and client peace of mind, the Company automatically coordinates with independent attorneys, such as E. Albert Law, to handle the filing of surplus claims and the management of disbursements.

  •  Standard Safety Protocol: This coordination ensures that legal filings meet court standards and that funds are handled through a secure, regulated process. 
  •  Independent Representation: These attorneys are independent third parties who act solely in the interest of the claimant for the purpose of the recovery. No partnership or supervisory relationship exists between the Company and the independent counsel, such as E. Albert Law. 

3. Fee Structure & Regulatory Compliance

  • Contingency Fee: Upon successful recovery, the Company retains a service fee of up to 25% of the gross amount recovered. 
  • Regulatory Adjustment: If local laws or state regulations mandate a lower maximum fee for asset recovery, the Company will automatically adjust its fee to the maximum legal limit allowed in that jurisdiction. 

 4. Professional Fund Management (Attorney Escrow) 

The Company utilizes a "Split-Disbursement" model to protect the Client’s funds: 

  • Escrow Protection: Recovered funds are directed into an Independent Attorney Trust Account (IOLTA). 
  • Fiduciary Disbursement: The attorney is authorized to deduct the Company’s service fee and any pre-approved legal costs before issuing the remaining "Net Recovery" balance directly to the Client. 
  • Transparency: The Client is entitled to a statement outlining the total recovery and an itemized breakdown of all disbursements. 

 5. Client Appreciation Program (Perks & Stays) 

  • General Statement: The Company may offer discretionary client appreciation perks, such as complimentary hotel stays, as a token of gratitude. 
  • Availability: These perks are offered for a limited time and are available while supplies last. The Company reserves the right to modify or terminate these offerings at any time. 
  • Third-Party Terms: Stays are fulfilled by third-party partners, have no cash value, are non-transferable, and cannot be used for group travel. Blackout dates may apply. 

6. Client Duties & Notary Services 

  • Cooperation: The Client agrees to provide necessary identification and signed documents within seven (7) business days of a request. 
  • Notary Fees: While the Client is generally responsible for securing a local Notary Public, the Company may, on a case-by-case basis, provide funds to cover notary fees to facilitate the timely submission of documents. This is a discretionary benefit and not a contractual requirement. 
  • Non-Circumvention: The Client agrees not to bypass the Company to collect identified funds either directly or via another company once the Company has initiated the research or filing process. 

7. Payment Failures & Strict Timelines 

If funds are inadvertently released directly to the Client by a government agency: 

  • Initial Window: The Client must remit the Company's fee within three (3) business days. 
  • Notice & Cure: If payment is not received, a formal Notice of Default will be issued. The Client then has three (3) business days to cure the debt. 
  •  Legal Recourse: Failure to cure will result in immediate legal action. The Client agrees to pay all costs of collection, including court costs and reasonable attorney fees. 

8. Limitation of Liability & Government Delays 

  • No Guarantee: The Company does not guarantee that a government agency will approve a claim, as approval rests solely with the holding agency (county courts system). 
  • Processing Times: The Company is not liable for delays caused by government backlogs, court schedules, or agency processing times. 

9. Withdrawal & Governing Law 

  • Withdrawal: If a Client terminates this agreement after filings have begun, they may be held liable for administrative hours and legal costs incurred up to that date. 
  • Governing Law: These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction where the surplus funds are held.
