How do I posthumously prove anything?

Do I need a dead-man switch? Do they sell those?

I think a death certificate and your will are enough. Only one of the two is probably not enough.

Wills aren't required and not everyone will have one.

I think the best course of action is to have a trust set up and have all of your assets under the trust. That's how my attorney set up my end of life tasks. It saves you problems with probate and taxes while also giving you flexibility if you want to change things.
