You can inform the personal representative of your father's estate of your choice. Your father's will should have a provision that allows for your inheritance to go someone else. Regardless, you do not have to accept it.

You might want to discuss other options with an attorney that would allow you to direct where the inheritance is to go.

Feel free to call me to discuss this.
