Process to identify Shelley wallet accounts for deceased person?

Help to identify Shelley wallets for my deceased brother

Im sorry for your loss.

So im not really sure what kind of help you are looking for here.

What evidence do you have, that your bother had ADA in the first place? Do you have access to his exchange accounts? Do you have his seedphrase? Do you have his hardware wallet?

I have the name Shelley wallet with names of the wallets and the 24 word recovery codes for each wallet. We have some access to his computer but his phone is not recoverable for any 2 factor verification. I mainly am trying to figure out how to contact someone to deal with estate issues and help from that standpoint. Thanks.

If you have the recovery phrase, you don’t need anything else or access to any of his stuff.

You can just restore the wallet with the recovery phrase in any Cardano wallet app.

Oh, and you should probably try to do it yourself. Don’t give the seed phrase to anyone!

As HeptaSean already said, if you have the 24 word seedphrase, you have everything you need to access the funds.

Choose a wallet like Typhon, use the seedphrase to restore the keys to access the funds and then transfer the tokens to an exchange like Kraken, Binance or Coinbase to sell them if you want.

Also ignore any incoming direct messages as there are alot of scammers around.

If you need any more help, feel free to ask here.
