You can check to see if you were named as a beneficiary under those financial accounts. You would call the financial institutions and tell them your name and your father's name. If you are a beneficiary, then you will need a certified copy of his death certificate.
If your father did not name a beneficiary for those accounts, then you may have to file a probate petition to transfer those financial accounts to his heirs.
