The office of the Public Administrator investigates, protects, and administers estates of Placer County decedents who have no known relatives who are willing and able to administer their estate.

The process may include securing and protecting valuables against loss (including those held by financial institutions), seeing to the final disposition of the decedent’s remains, locating possible next of kin to perform as administrators of the estate, or, if none are found, County administration of the decedent’s estate.
