Best Answer

If your talking about estate wise, then if the will says' And to my children I leave all my assests to be split equally, then go with the paternity papers to the family or your attorney and have them file them in the courts and with the family. Can you force someone to see the child if they are still alive, no, but you can get child support for them, if the person is still alive. Go to the phone book and call around and ask for a free consultation for answers to questions you have, bring along any proof you have and documents that will help you, good luck.

A person who has a Will drawn up can choose to leave their Estate which includes property; monies (including stocks and bonds) to anyone they prefer and often times the children may not be included. Once the person is deceased their request of who is left what (if anything) is followed through. However, if an illegitimate child feels that they should get something out of the Will they can be advised by a lawyer to contest the Will.

Clarification/Answer

First: A child born out of wedlock has the same rights of inheritance as any biological child in most jurisdictions. If the decedent died without a will, the child is entitled to an intestate share of the estate under the state laws of intestacy. You can check the laws in your state at the related question link provided below.

In many states adult children can be disinherited but the will must be properly drafted in certain jurisdictions by mentioning in the will the testator's wish to not make any bequests to their children and the children must be named. In those states, a child who is not mentioned is assumed to have been forgotten by the testator and the state laws of intestacy will provide a share in the estate to that child.

A testator cannot disinherit minor children by their will in most states. In that case, the state provides a share under the state laws to any biological child of the decedent.

The term "illegitimate child" is a horrible classification pushed by insane religious people. Of course a child born out of wedlock has all of the same rights and privileges as any other.

If they are an acknowledged child, they may inherit under intestacy laws. And anyone can be named in a will.
