Legal Question in Family Law in Louisiana

My mother passed away 2 weeks ago unexpectedly. She did not have a living will. My sister told me that I have no rights to any of my mother's assets (vehicle and mobile home). I wanted to know exactly what rights I do have and what I need to do legally to obtain my rights.
