You don't necessity have a right to part of the estate, but you certainly have a right to see the Will and/or living trust, if any.
Michael Cusack is correct. You may want to seek the assistance of a probate attorney who will to represent you and file a petition into probate that will force the sister to file the will into court to allow you see the contents of the will.
