Do you have any visitation rights if you have a half sister who is 7 and your mum passed away last year and she lives with her dad?

In most cases you do. If you sister wants to see you that's great, and there should be no reason why your father wouldn't let you see her. If he doesn't want you near her because of the bitter separation between your parents, then you can go to court and they will probably grant you visitation rights only if this 7 year old wants to see you. Otherwise, you are going to have to wait until she is of legal age. Good luck Marcy

Can a parent who hasn't been in contact with a child in 10 years get custody or visitation?
It's highly unlikely that custodial rights would even be considered. However, courts seldom refuse visitation rights unless there is evidence of abuse or neglect on the part of the requesting parent. If there is not a court order terminating parental rights due to abandonment or another such issue, the parent will likely be granted visitation. It is quite possible, the court would order supervised visitation for a specified length of time. A lot depends on the reason for non-contact with the child. Courts tend to leave things as they are and not make drastic changes in children's lives unless it is what they want and better for them in the long run. yes, you can get visitation and/or custody but again, it depends on what kept you away (drugs, jail, etc.).

Yes and no. Having a record or it does not mean it's still a problem. Since being fatherless is far more damaging, if there is a concern, set supervised visitation for a designated period of time with random drug tests. see link
