What is the name of your state? CO
My best friend died young and suddenly about a month ago. She did have a will. Her husband was a house husband (no kids) who didn't do bills or taxes and he's a little overwhelmed. To complicate matters, she's been unemployed for a while, and had a small business on the side, so there's lots of debt he didn't know about, some in her name, some in her business's name, some in both their names, some where he's listed as an authorized user. He's nor sure where to begin, what to pay and what not to pay, plus he has no money coming in. They own a home with a mortgage, which he'd like to keep, but he has no money for an attorney, can't find proof that last year's taxes were filed, still doesn't have a final death certificate so can't access 401k, annuity, etc.
