Yes. You should be notified when the will is submitted for probate. I have handled will contests when I was able to prove undue influence or lack of testamentary capacity.

I am not admitted in Florida. I am unsure if Florida has a provision that requires a will to be submitted to probate or filed within a certain period of time like Nevada but most every state has a provisions and time constraints for contesting a will that is being proffered for probate. You should receive notification and a copy as a child of the decedent.
Wills are a public record. Check in the county in which your Father was domiciled at the time of his death. If you believe that he was not competent to make a will or unduly influenced get a lawyer asap. Some states have a method of forcing the party holding the will to submit it for probate. Ask the lawyer if Florida has such a procedure.
