About First Heritage Funding

First Heritage Funding is an inheritance advance company that helps heirs and beneficiaries access their inheritance before probate closes. An inheritance advance is not a loan — there is no credit check, no monthly payments, and no personal liability. The advance is repaid directly from the estate when it settles. First Heritage Funding serves heirs in 47 U.S. states and can fund advances as fast as 48 hours. The company charges a single flat fee disclosed upfront with no hidden costs or compounding interest.

Why we exist

Losing someone you love is one of the most difficult experiences in life. The last thing you should have to worry about is money — especially when money that is rightfully yours is tied up in a legal process that could take months or even years to resolve. Probate in states like California and New York routinely takes 12 to 24 months, and complicated estates can take 3 years or more.

First Heritage Funding was founded to solve this problem. We give heirs and beneficiaries a way to access their inheritance now, when they need it most. We work directly with estate attorneys and courts to verify your inheritance and get funds to you quickly.

What sets us apart

The inheritance funding industry is full of companies that treat customers like transactions. We're different. Every person who contacts us is going through one of the hardest times of their life, and we never lose sight of that. We're patient, transparent, and honest — even when it means telling someone that an advance isn't the right choice for their situation.

Our team has decades of combined experience in estate funding, probate law, and financial services. We bring institutional expertise to every case — and we're proud that many of our clients refer friends and family to us.

Our commitment to transparency

We believe you deserve to know exactly what you're getting into before you commit. That means clear, flat fees disclosed upfront — no hidden charges, no fine print, no surprises. We'll explain the entire process in plain language, answer every question you have, and give you all the time you need to make your decision. There's never any pressure.

Nationwide service

We serve heirs in 47 states. Whether the estate is in California or Florida, whether it's a simple probate or a complex multi-state trust, our team has the experience and knowledge to help. We work with every type of estate and every type of heir. (We are currently unable to serve estates in Maryland, Virginia, or Connecticut due to state regulatory requirements.)
