Are grandchildren entitled to part of an estate after death if no will is written?
When someone dies without a will the state laws of intestacy provide for the distribution of their property. Generally, if your parent is deceased you would inherit your parent's share of your grandparent's estate. If your parent is not deceased then you have no right to a share of your grandparent's estate. If your grandparent left a will and the will is allowed you have no other right to their estate.

Who determines who gets the estate after my mothers death?
If your mother had a will then that will likely determine where her estate will go after her death. If not, then her estate will pass through intestacy in which the court goes down the family lines (husband, then children, then grandchildren, parents, siblings, etc) until there is someone to give it to. If your mother is still alive, I urge you to talk to her about drafting a will.
