My father passed away last year. I have already settled probate. Can I claim associated legal fees for probate? What about the probate fee itself?

Sorry for your loss.

Unfortunately, probate fees, associated legal fees for probate, fees to administer the estate and funeral expenses are all considered personal expenses and are not deductible.
