Honours & Awards


Every year, the UK Probate Research Awards (since 2024: Probate Industry Awards) honor the best players in the probate research industry. Our Managing Director Jan-Mathis Holstein has already received three awards for his international work. In 2023, our genealogist Dr. Max Bloch also received the award in the "Best International Heir Researcher" category for the first time. At the current award ceremony, which took place on April 18, 2024 in front of more than 200 guests in London, ADD HOLSTEIN was named the best international heir tracing company.
