Sometimes you can file a Claim with an Affidavit of Heirship and Next of Kin (already recorded) with the Insurance Co., and they will pay out. It is better to try this first instead of going directly to Probate. Sometimes the Small Estate Affidavit for Probate will work also.

It depends on what the life insurance policy says happens upon death. It will likely go into his estate which means someone will need to open the estate and start the probate process. You should hire an attorney to assist you.
