Generally, all children have the same rights, whether born within wedlock or not. The issue may be one of proving your status as a child of the mother, but you are an equal to the "legitimate" child. The terms "illigitimate" and "legitimate" children are no longer in use, by the way.

What is a Jewish father's obligation to his illegitimate daughter?
It depends on what the term "illegitimate" means. The term "illegitimate" is much more expansive than the Hebrew term "Mamzer" which refers to a child born out of an incestuous relationship or a child born to a married woman and a man not her husband. The father has no obligation to a Mamzer. The father does have an obligation to any other child that he fathers (regardless if it falls within the Western definitions of legitimate or illegitimate).

How do you claim assets of a deceased father with no will?
If your father owned any property at the time of his death then his estate must be probated. If he died without a will then his estate is an intestate estate. (See related question link.)

For very small estates without real estate most probate courts have an expedited process. If that is the case you should inquire at the probate court in your jurisdiction.
