When an estranged parent dies does the grown adult child get anything?

Whether a grown child is estranged from his or her parent does not affect that child's right to inherit from the parent. The grown adult child's right to inherit ("get anything") depends on three things. First, does the adult have a will and is the adult child named in the parent's will? If so, the adult child will inherit, even if he or she is estranged from the parent. Second, if there is no will, then the laws of intestacy determine who gets the property of the dead parent. These laws vary from state to state and are determined by the state of residency of the dead parent. Often, assets of a dead parent are split between a surviving spouce and children under such laws. Lastly, the adult child could inherit ("get something") if he or she is named as a beneficiary on a life insurance policy, brokerage account, bank account or if he or she is a joint tenant or tenant in common on a piece of property or other asset. These assets pass outside of the dead person's estate and that person's will.


Right of major child for education fees from father?

Unless some stipulation was legally made regarding education fees, as in a divorce decree, I don't believe the father has any financial obligations to the child once he has reached majority. Financial assistance from the father at this point would be his prerogative. Continued education is a privilege not an (adult) child's right.

Does the child have legal right to his father even if the parents never married but the father signed on his live birth as acknowledgement?

United StatesYes. That child has legal rights as his father's biological child. First, that child has the legal right to be financially supported by his father. Second, that child may have inheritance rights according to the law in the particular state or other jurisdiction. In the United States a minor child he cannot be disinherited if his father dies even if his father leaves all his property to someone else in his Will. His mother could file a claim against the estate. As an adult he can make a claim against the estate in some jurisdictions if his father dies intestate, or without a will.
