Without actually asking them prior to their death, you can't, nor are they required to disclose that information.

If you are asking about learning if their will is being probated, you could make inquiry at the Clerk of The Court office in the county in which they resided at the time of their death and ask if the deceased's probate hearing was on the docket.

You will be notified by the executor or, if the executor is represented by an attorney, then most likely by that attorney. Few states, if any, require an executor to have an attorney. The executor is the one with the legal obligation to notify all persons who have an interest in the will. It is his or her choice to satisfy that obligation either personally or through the attorney. Also, once the will has been filed for probate you can visit the probate court and read the will. Once a will has been filed it becomes a public record.

Get ahold of the executor/executrix. File a claim with the Surrogate court where the will was probated.

You should be notified by the executor that the Will has been submitted to probate court. You should receive your bequeast after the debts and costs of administration have been paid.
