Last Updated:
Below you’ll find detailed answers to the most common questions about TCG Datae, our services, and how we collaborate with law firms, notaries, and legal professionals. Our goal is to make our processes as transparent as possible, providing complete clarity on who we are, what we do, and how we maintain the highest operational and ethical standards.
1. What is TCG Datae?
TCG Datae is a professional consulting and legal-support firm that provides back-office research, data verification, and operational assistance to law firms across multiple jurisdictions.
We specialize in probate, estate, and unclaimed property matters, helping attorneys handle complex documentation, case verification, and beneficiary tracing efficiently.
Our mission is to simplify the administrative burdens of legal practice. Through advanced data tools and human-led analysis, we deliver verified reports, case-ready documents, and process support
that enable legal professionals to focus on representation and case strategy rather than operational details.
2. Is TCG Datae a law firm?
No. TCG Datae is not a law firm and does not provide legal representation or advice.
Our work complements that of licensed attorneys by providing research, document preparation, and administrative assistance.
We never interpret legal statutes, offer legal opinions, or represent clients in court.
Instead, we serve as a trusted backend partner for law offices, streamlining investigations, case follow-ups, and document compilation.
All final legal decisions must be made by licensed attorneys who oversee each matter.
3. What services does TCG Datae offer?
TCG Datae offers a comprehensive suite of legal support and research solutions designed for high-volume and specialized legal operations.
Our core services include heir and beneficiary research, document drafting, estate case analysis, address tracing, and claim file preparation.
We also provide advanced administrative outsourcing, data management, notary coordination, and verification workflows that support attorneys handling multiple jurisdictions.
Our flexible structure allows law firms to delegate operational work to us securely while maintaining full oversight and compliance.
4. Who do you work with?
We work primarily with law firms, attorneys, notaries, and licensed legal service providers.
However, our network also includes investigators, genealogists, probate specialists, and document processors.
Each collaborator is carefully vetted and bound by confidentiality agreements to ensure professionalism.
Whether you are a solo practitioner or a large legal entity, TCG Datae integrates seamlessly into your workflow, offering scalable solutions that adapt to your caseload, size, and jurisdictional focus.
5. How do you ensure data accuracy?
We rely on a hybrid model that combines verified public data sources, proprietary research tools, and expert human oversight.
Each case undergoes a multi-step review that includes data cross-validation, quality assurance, and compliance checks.
Our analysts verify every record manually to eliminate inconsistencies before any document or report is released.
We maintain an internal chain-of-custody process for all data to ensure accuracy, accountability, and traceability.
6. Do you handle sensitive or confidential information?
Yes, confidentiality is one of our foundational principles.
We handle highly sensitive case materials, including death certificates, wills, court filings, and financial statements, under strict data security controls.
All systems are encrypted and access-restricted. Only authorized personnel can view or process data relevant to their assigned case.
We also comply with applicable data protection laws such as the Florida Information Protection Act (FIPA) and the CCPA for California-based clients.
7. How long does it take to complete a case research request?
The turnaround time depends on the complexity of each case.
Standard cases are typically completed within 24–72 hours. More intricate cases, especially those involving cross-jurisdictional or international records, may take longer.
We offer expedited services for urgent legal matters.
Each project is managed with a clear timeline, and clients are notified promptly if additional verification or documentation is required to ensure accuracy.
8. Can you help identify heirs for probate cases?
Absolutely. Identifying and verifying heirs is one of our core competencies.
Our team uses a mix of genealogical research, public records, and succession laws to trace family lines and confirm relationships in probate cases.
We create detailed family trees, relationship summaries, and data-supported heir charts that are admissible as supporting documentation in probate and unclaimed property filings.
This process ensures compliance with the respective jurisdiction’s succession statutes.
9. Do you contact heirs directly?
In most cases, we do not initiate contact with heirs unless expressly authorized by the managing law firm.
Our standard practice is to maintain a neutral research position and only engage in communication under attorney instruction.
However, when permitted, we can prepare professional outreach scripts, verify contact information, and assist attorneys or notaries in coordinated outreach campaigns while maintaining strict ethical boundaries.
10. What makes TCG Datae different from other research providers?
TCG Datae’s primary distinction lies in our human-driven research model integrated with legal intelligence.
Unlike automated data vendors, we prioritize accuracy, compliance, and contextual understanding over bulk data delivery.
Every report we issue is legally structured, bilingual when necessary, and tailored for attorney use — not generic data reports.
Our operational model is built around responsiveness, integrity, and adaptability, offering real-time coordination with your team.
11. Where is TCG Datae located?
Our primary administrative office is based in Miami, Florida, serving as our main coordination hub for U.S. clients.
However, TCG Datae also maintains distributed research teams internationally.
This structure enables us to provide cost-effective, bilingual support that operates across time zones, ensuring continuous workflow and faster completion cycles for firms nationwide.
12. How do you collaborate with law firms?
We act as an operational extension of law offices, integrating into their existing workflow.
Attorneys submit specific tasks or case files, and we handle background research, document verification, and structured reporting.
Deliverables are formatted for immediate use in filings or client communication.
For firms managing recurring projects, TCG Datae can assign dedicated case managers who maintain ongoing communication and process updates.
13. Do you offer monthly plans or retainers?
Yes. We offer multiple engagement models to suit different firm sizes and caseloads.
Options include per-case billing, flat monthly retainers, or dedicated team arrangements for continuous operations.
Retainer agreements typically include priority handling, reporting dashboards, and a fixed number of research hours per month.
All pricing structures are transparent and documented in advance.
14. How can I start working with TCG Datae?
Getting started is simple. You can reach out via our website, email, or phone.
Once we receive your inquiry, a case coordinator will schedule a consultation to understand your objectives, timeline, and scope of work.
After approval, we prepare a formal service outline detailing deliverables, pricing, and confidentiality provisions to ensure full transparency before engagement begins.
15. What if I need support outside business hours?
Our regular business hours are Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM (EST).
However, we understand that legal emergencies can occur outside standard hours.
For active clients, TCG Datae provides access to emergency lines and supervisor contacts for after-hours coordination.
Extended-hour coverage can also be arranged through our retainer or premium service plans.
