It does not make sense at all. It sound like your client used a full time broker to trade for him. In that case, he would have received some year end tax documents from his broker's brokerage house even he did not trade for himself. Receiving year end tax documents has nothing to do with his broker's death.

There are lots of independent brokers that have a relationship with a brokerage firm. Generally the stock is held by by the brokerage firm, which issues regular statements and pays dividends. If this is the case, the important thing is the name of the brokerage firm, not the name of the individual broker.

However, if your client actually took possession of the physical shares, I'm at a loss. I guess I start by hiring someone to go into that attic to get the paperwork.
