Since his death I have made several enquiries via your Embassy to locate any of my client's extended relatives but this has yielded no result. After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his last name over the Internet, to locate any member of his family hence I contacted you.

Please you are free to give your own opinion on this sharing fomular if you so wish. I have all the necessary legal documents that will back you up as the Next of Kin to the deceased.
