My father past away on 09/04/09. How can I find out if he left a will and who are the beneficiaries? How can I find out what insurances he had from his employer?

Since it sounds like you and your father were not close that may be a problem. Normally, the easiest way to get information is to talk to your other relatives. At this point in time, even if your father had a Will in all probability the probate of his estate has not been opened yet. When (if) it is you can review the Will in the County records. You can try contacting his employer about the insurance although they probably won't talk to you unless you are a beneficiary. You may want to contact a good probate attorney and discuss your situation.
