Please accept my condolences on the passing of your husband. Unfortunately, in order to obtain help accessing his bank account, as well as dealing with any other issues that may need to be addressed as the result of his death, you will need to make direct contact with an attorney who works on probate matters. This forum does not allow attorneys to actually assist you, as it is not possible to gather the needed information and give actual advice. You need to find an attorney who handles probate matters, using the resources on this website, and contact that attorney's office to schedule a probate consultation. The only other option, depending on the county your husband lived in at his death, is that you may be able to get some assistance through a probate court clinic program. For example, both Fulton and DeKalb Counties offer a free, very short, consultation with a volunteer probate attorney (I believe the program is called the "Probate Information Center" in Fulton and the "Probate Information Clinic" in DeKalb, or something like that). You have to contact the court to make an appointment to get help through those programs, and they are not intended to provide comprehensive help, but they are designed to help people who don't have an attorney carry out discrete tasks and if the volunteer determines that ongoing assistance from an attorney is really needed, they will tell you. Best wishes to you.
