Under the law, once a will has gone through probate and executor is appointed, should this be sufficient to access bank accounts?

Answered by attorney James Bloomfield Oberholtzer
Estate Planning lawyer at James Oberholtzer, Chartered
Give the Bank what they want. It is not worth fighting with them. Just calling your attorney has cost you more than the cost of the death certificate. Many institutions will require the death certificate.

On his death, the debt of your father would pass to his estate. If his life insurance is payable to a specific beneficiary or beneficiaries it would pass directly to the beneficiary and would not be subject to the claims of creditors.

Did he own half of everything they had or does that just apply to debt?

Estate Planning lawyer at Law Offices of Kimberly D. Moss, PLLC
Texas is a community property state, so once your father married your stepmother, the property and income they acquired became community property. Because your father died without a will, the Texas intestate succession laws apply. They determine who is entitled to what part of your dad's estate. Because he left behind a fairly large amount of property, it is necessary for his estate to go through the legal proceeding known as administration. Please make sure to consult with an attorney who is experienced in this type of law. Your step mother's 401k belongs to her. It will be up to her to determine who should inherit it because from your question it appears she is still alive. If she writes a will, that will determine who is entitled to her 401k and retirement accounts.
