Estate Due Diligence & Creditor Discovery — Denver
When a Denver County resident passes, creditors, beneficiaries, and fiduciaries face a 6-month claim window under Colorado probate law (C.R.S. § 15-12-803). Our cross-reference of public obituaries against active civil-judgment and lien data surfaces matched parties privately to listed creditors.
How matches are surfaced
delinquent.live record exists naming a Denver resident with an unsatisfied judgment.
colorado.living.site obit pipeline detects a death matching that name (phonetic + DOB ±2yr + county).
Private alert dispatched to the creditor who listed the debt — never published publicly.
No matched-creditor data is published on this page. Public-facing content remains the obituary excerpt + the public court records (linked, not republished).
Are you a creditor with an unsatisfied Denver judgment?
List unrecovered judgments on delinquent.live. When matched against our daily Denver County obituary feed, you receive an estate-claim alert within 24 hours — typically days or weeks before the standard 4-month publication notice runs.
