No. The child support was owed to the custodial parent and not the child. In order to obtain a judgment lien the adult children would need legal standing to bring suit in civil court- they wouldn't qualify. Also, there may be a statute of limitations. They, and their mother, should consult with an attorney who specializes in family law to determine if their mother can file a claim against the estate.

In Texas how can estranged adult children of first marriage be sure their rights are protected upon the death of their father?
At the death of the father the adult child or children can file a claim against the estate with the probate court. Bear in mind that Texas is a community property state, that being the case the majority of marital property is automatically awarded to the current spouse if the father dies intestate. If there is a Will the "right of election" is in force and the terms of the Will dictate distribution for any separately held property. Almost any Will can be contested, however, it is generally an expensive and lengthy process to do so.

If the only name on the deed is that of the deceased, the adult children have no say and the deceased can do what they wish with it.

Consider that possibly the son feels he has a valid reason for not interacting with his father, and if possible can the father do anything to rectify that situation. If you feel or know that the father did not cause the rift, accept that adult children are adults, and that adults can choose to speak to whomever they wish. Adult children are also still your children and go through phases all their lives. Give him time and he may come around.
