Attorneys
On behalf of the lawyers that at some time tried without pay to help our cause.
Please be known that all the attorneys and Law Firms that at one given time or another assisted individuals or other organizations, in our pursuit to claim our inheritance without charging a penny and working as pro-bono…they did all acted on our best interest.
Now, it is also true that they all gave up and cancelled contracts, but sad to say most of us are to blame, many heirs kept calling them on a daily basis confusing and damaging their investigations, it became for them a nuisance, they said…“not able to afford”

NOTA: OFAC, es el centro que representa en parte las leyes de los Estados Unidos con respecto a leyes de restricciones y tramitaciones de bienes en el extranjero, y bienes en tramitación como es, nuestra Herencia.
Si no estamos mal informados, no hace mucho tiempo atrás un posible heredero recibió una carta de la OFAC, diciéndole a este tenía tiempo limitado para cumplir con ciertos requisitos, y arreglar sus documentos inmediatamente por razones de bienes por recibir. Interesante, no?
No sabemos más al respecto de lo que pasó después.
Conclusión: Todo esto esta nuevamente conectado a lo nuestro, que ya sabemos es eminente. La distribución de nuestro Legado, La Herencia de Manso de Contreras y las de Los Loyola.
