The family of the deceased is not responsible for the debts of the deceased. All debts of the deceased are in the estate.

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

Your lawyer is correct. However, if the bank will not accept the court order appointing you as executor, it's faster, cheaper, and easier to just provide them with a copy of the death certificate. Otherwise, you will have to haul them into probate court and have the court order them to recognize you as executor.
