Ok, seriously, this is a very odd question. I'm not sure about everyone else, but the thought of my parents dying does not include $$ what-so-ever......I think you should be thinking of how sad it would be to not have grandparents for your children, or who would you call to find out how to make that great chicken recipe your mom always made....etc, etc.....hun, appreciate your parents while you have them and worry about this stuff only when you unfortunately are faced with it.

Unless your name is on the account as 'payable on death' or 'joint owner with right of survivorship', it is NOT automatic that you are entitled to the funds. Even if they have a will that gives you EVERYTHING, the estate must be probated before you can access the accounts. Releasing the funds before ensuring the paperwork is in order could cost the bank MUCH more than you ever could.

this is just a sad pathetic question,

the answer is no
they have to stipulate in there will or living trust
where the money goes you have no right to it

No, unless you are on the bank account. My mother put me on her bank account so I could get to her money when she dies. Otherwise you will need a lawyer.

I'm an estate attorney. If your parents' bank account has your name on it, then you might be able to claim it, depending on the situation (for example, your age could be a problem if you're under 18).

If not (and I'm guessing not) then, no, you can't automatically go to the bank and claim the money. Even with an attorney.

i hope your parents mean more to you then just their bank acct. if not it looks like you will burn through the money they have worked for all their lives and have nothing to show for it. but to answer your question no you can't first off if they have a will it will have to be read they might not have left you anything , but if they did , a death certificate will have to be taken to the bank after probate and estate is taken care of...
