Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in California

Entitlement

I have been estranged from my father for my entire life. He has remarried and has other children. He has recently died and I do not belive he has a Will. Am I entitled to any part of his estate. If so, how do I go about it finding what he owns and how to obtain my fair share.

Re: Entitlement

if there is no will you do have a right to anything a child would get. you can file a probate on his estate yourself if no one else has. if they have see a lawyer to make sure you get your share.

Re: Entitlement to estate of estranged father

If there is no will, you are entitled to an intestate share of his estate (a portion of his separate property, not community property).
