my mother recently passed away leaving a small estate to me and my sons(she had a will) She had bank cds, annuities, a car, and life insurance. Do I need a lawyer or can I take care of this myself by submitting death certificates and original paperwork to the appropriate institutions?

Did mother have designated beneficiaries listed with her different accounts? You could do most of this by yourself.
