Thank you for trusting Just Answer. I will answer as clearly as possible. I do ask for you Accept my answer so I am paid when we are done.A child does not have an automatic legal right to a parent's estate in Minnesota. Unfortunately unless you can prove that your father's will is invalid for some reason then you do not have rights to his estate. You will need to prove that the will was not signed correctly, that your father did not know what he was doing when he signed the will or that he was forced into signing the will.
