What is a child entitled to when a parent dies with a will?

When a parent dies with a will, a child is typically entitled to receive any assets or property that are left to them in the will. This could include financial assets, real estate, personal belongings, or any other items specifically designated for the child in the will.

In some cases, a child may also be entitled to receive a portion of the parent's estate, even if they are not specifically named in the will. This is because most state laws provide for children to inherit a portion of their parent's estate, regardless of whether or not they are mentioned in the will.

It's important for the child to carefully review the will and any applicable state laws to understand what they are entitled to receive from their deceased parent's estate. In some cases, they may need to work with an attorney to ensure that their rights are protected and that they receive their fair share of the inheritance.
