You should be able to write "For Deposit Only" on the back of the checks and they will be deposited into his account which, as heir, I assume you have access too. Also, if you have a death certificate that replaces his signature in closing the bank account. Call the bank first to be sure you are doing the right thing.

You have to do a series of actions to get the money.
1. Collect the death certificate.
2. Has your father left any will or nomination in your favour to receive the money.
3 get proof to say that you are the legal heir of your father.
4 Get an affidavit filed in a appropriate court to this effect and get copies
5. Appoint a advocate to speak your case where ever required.
6. Then approach the employer and convince him your genuineness.
If you complete all these formalities you will easily and in reasonable time get the money back.
OR
If an account with any bank exist the cheques may be deposited there and money can be drawn after compleating the formalities and convincing the bank.

Assuming that the checks were not sent in error, the probate process is the way for the heirs of your father to receive the residual of his estate (The amount remaining after his bills are paid) It is not legal for you to simply cash the checks. You probably would be able to deposit them into a checking account held by your father, but again to ultimately receive the funds you will need to go through the probate process

Are you the executor of his estate? If so, sign the checks as such and deposit them into his checking or savings account (if he has one.) If not, go to the bank on which they were drawn and endorse them as executor and present them with a copy of the will which designates you as the executor. If that fails, then endorse them as executor and deposit them into your account. Conversely, you could present the will to the former employer and request that they re-issue the checks payable to you.
If you aren't the executor, the checks need to go through the probate process. Take them to the court and let them process the funds as required by law.

To avoid problems I would take the checks to his employer and ask to give you new checks that you can cash, in your name. I am sure the employer knows of your fathers passing away. The best way I am sure to avoid any possible problems in the future.

If the checks were received after his dead and didn't work for them you most return them back, is fraud and a felony if you collect funds for which you have no right. Do not try, jails are already too full.
Is incredible that for the commitment of a fraud and a felony many people come forward to give ideas, but if you ask how to finish the wars, hunger, selfishness, etc. just few give ideas. That's the reason because the world is a mess.

Your father's lawyer or the exectutor/executrix of his estate should be given the cheques because they don't belong to you , they belong to his estate.
If chequing accounts are frozen, as they are in some deaths , the lawyer will advance you money from the estate for household expenses etc, but all monies must be paid back into the estate or deducted from the balance of the estate.
So give the money to the lawyer/exectutor and do not cash them yourself.

If you got the check...you collected. There is no signature needed when depositing a check, only if cash is withheld;) Once it has cleared., you withdraw the money.
