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

I would give them the Death Certificate as well. The bank is probably just following their internal procedures. While your lawyer is not wrong, it is going to be easier to just give the bank what it wants that to try to fight them on this. If it was something more expensive or complicated, I might challenge them. In this case, I would just give it to them. Perhaps they can make a copy of the original and give it back to you.

How do I obtain legal executive of my daughter's estate?

Terry Lynn Garrett
Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
Hire a probate lawyer who practices in the county in which your daughter lived and died.  Depending on the size of the estate, you may be able to file a Small Estate Affidavit.  This costs less than a determination of heirship and does not require a court appearance.

Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Victor Waid
Assuming your father died with assets of at least $150,000.00 in California, and this was the state of his residence, a petition for probate would be filed in the county of his last known residence, and you should seek the assistance of a probate lawyer to handle the matter, and who are paid out of the assets of the estate.
