Legal Question in Family Law in Virginia
I'm currently 54 yrs young and have only met my biological father twice in my lifetime. If he dies am I able to receive anything from his estate? Will I need a birth certificate or DNA test to prove I am his daughter?

No, under these circumstances the only way you could
receive anything from your putative father's estate would be if
he dies with a valid will which specifically names you as an heir and beneficiary of his estate.
