MHNA believes that there is no data-supported case in which any type of inheritance-related dysfunction, dishonesty and criminality, including full-scale organised inheritance crime by estate managers, lawyers, heirs and others, will escape our notice or defy our fiduciary forensic, scientific and other methods. 

We use specialist proprietary tools, techniques, methods and processes, and advanced databases and analytics:-

• to parse and astorise, including spectroscopically…

• every {present} and {absent} datum: every relevant word, phrase, movement, act, default, action, inaction and (gross and net) cent (costs, prices, values etc.)…

• by all persons of interest individually, in combination and collectively…

• discretely by issue and holistically…

• in full multi-dimensional context.

We pay special attention to the parties' relevant mental, intellectual, administrative, behavioral and physical dynamics and relevant personal finances (including lifestyles and personal tax affairs).

Of course we fully assimilate relevant local law, practice, procedure and culture.

We particularly focus on:-

• the micro- and macro-behavior of lawyers (including the victim's), law firms, doctors, financial planners, asset managers, clerks, bookkeepers, accountants, auditors, family members, regulators, judges, expectant heirs, will-appointed executors and court-appointed administrators, estate front-office opponents and others of interest

• conspiracy, attempt, and accessorising before, during and after the fact

• organised crime, including gangs of lawyers, gangs of heirs, and hybrid gangs

• criminality in relation to high-value, intricate, vulnerable estates

• criminality directed against minority-interest and special-interest heirs

• criminal non-disclosure and concealment

• criminal misrepresentation and pretenses

• criminal abuse of position

• theft and receiving, handling, transacting

• 0btaining money, property, instruments, official appointments by deception

• criminal undue influence

• criminal accounting and accounts

• data criminality

• relationships and transactions criminality

• criminal impersonation

• forgery, falsification, fabrication, fictionalisation

• money laundering

• obstructing justice

• perjury and other court crime

• corruption

• tax crime

• dishonest interest-duty conflicts

• criminality by lawyers using professional tools such as bogus bills, bogus professional relationships, bogus professional transactions, bogus information, etc.

• the civil-law counterparts of particular crimes, if you choose the civil route.

Favoring particularity, we eschew the vague, ambiguous, amorphous term 'fraud'.

We work overtly or covertly as instructed, and always with appropriate delicacy, diplomacy, tact and discretion. We can work conspicuously in a particular case so as to robustly convey our approach, and our projected general direction of events, to estate fiduciaries and relevant others.

We never work in, with or as part of any 'team'. 

We use social media only forensically.

We are available to:-

• work as appropriate with other specialists and partner-level lawyers  

• scrutinise and evaluate documents, correspondence, interactions, relationships, transactions

• supervise and verify inventories, books of account, accounting processes, financial statements, accounts, official filings, tax filings, valuations of actual and contingent assets and liabilities

• draft technical reports, correspondence, comments, criticisms, complaints, instructions to lawyers and technical experts, friend-of-court briefs, pleadings, indictments, witness statements, affidavits, court applications, job descriptions

• locate, identify, authenticate, compile and present exhibits

• prepare and present detailed data-rich technical reports and formal complaints

• make technical presentations to (among others) lawyers, police, prosecutors, judges and juries.

We will tell you what criminality has been committed — when, where, and by whom — and how it has been committed.

Every MHNA customer has his own user-friendly MHNA secure online control room, log, ledger and archive from which he can easily monitor our gross- and net-valued activities and progress in real time and download our periodic customer-specific reports and accounts.

Our communications, and data uploading services, are encrypted and multiply secure.

Our work is comprehensively confidential indefinitely. 

MHNA unconventionally uses 'estate manager' as a generic term for the will's executor (before and or after death and before and or after probate), the estate's ad col grantee, the estate's interim administrator (before probate), the estate's administrator (on and after probate), and similar inheritance officials. None of these other terms by itself, however juridical and quasi-precise, properly conveys, and each of them materially misrepresents and obfuscates, the true nature and scope of the official's functions. Our term consolidates the profusion of terms and summarily eludicates the office. 

We also use as appropriate:-

• the generic terms 'estate fiduciary' and 'inheritance fiduciary'. (We note formal American usage — usually infelicitous, often misleading — of 'fiduciary' in other contexts)

• the unfamiliar, neglected, misused term 'fiduciant' to generically describe a recipient of fiduciary duties, such as an heir and a trust beneficiary. (In the trusts context, we reject the multiply misconceived, juridically misguided, illiterate, wholly inappropriate American use of 'fiduciant' — and even worse, 'grantor' — to refer to a settlor.)

We eschew gibberish, such as the use of 'probate' to refer to anything other than the process of proving a will. We particularly repudiate the American slop 'file probate', the peculiar 'admitted to probate', and the American "heirs' property" to refer to a particular class of realty. 

We avoid:-

• the vague, ambiguous, amorphous term 'fraud' — both civil and criminal. (We similarly dislike the pretentious American 'inheritance theft' to refer to an offense that says nothing about inheritance, and the highly infelicitous American 'inheritance hijacking'  to refer to behavior that has nothing to do with hijacking as commonly understood)

• jargon and illiterate legalese. For example, we dislike the word 'civil' for its ambiguity — eg 'civil law' vs. criminal law in a civil-law jurisdiction — but presently have no solution; cf. 'criminal' as an adjective and a noun, as in 'civil lawyer criminal', 'criminal lawyer criminal', 'criminal lawyer' and 'lawyer criminal'. While on relevant generalities, we note, deprecatingly, the absence of a term for an attorney under a power of attorney, so we have devised one: 'power-attorney'. We similarly deplore American juridical and judicial illiteracy in omitting the definite article ('Defendant…', 'Plaintiff…' etc.) Maybe there's something in it. We suspect there is only grandiose illiteracy in it (like some American judicial and lawyerly use — richly deserving of all the ridicule it attracts — of the word 'dicta')

• Latin ('executrix', 'administratrix', and similar absurdities. We do use 'ad col' and other appropriate terms where unavoidable. 'Pro bono', 'pro se', 'amicus' etc. are wholly avoidable). 

For internal and some other purposes (including this website), MHNA prefers the straightforward 'customer' to 'client'. (Of course we do use 'client' if conventionally necessary.)

And we consider it unprofessional — because in practice, next to impossible — to deal with any relevant estate management datum or situation without correctly placing it into one or more of these (usually interacting) four locations (and that's how we do it; we don't know anyone else who uses this elementary essential tool, which explains why purported particularisation is usually all over the place):-
