If the other parent is the sole beneficiary in the life insurance policy, no. Participate in the probate process and you might walk away with something. So sad that someone's child would sue their grieving parent. Only if there is some record that the deceased parent wanted the child to have part of the money. If nothing...the insurance company gives the money to the person that has been chosen as the beneficiary. That is all they are required by law to do.

Who pays for a funeral of a parent with one adult child and no will?

A will makes no difference other than to indicate if the deceased parent left funds either money or life insurance to pay the cost of their funeral. They are still you're parent, so the adult child should pay, that is the moral stance. However, legally, the children do not have the funds to pay for the funeral, then they can ask the government for help. Most governments usually will provide for the cost of a basic funeral for a deceased, if that deceased left no means from their estate to meet their own funeral costs.
