Is my parents will public record after their death?

Is my parents will public record after their death?

My father passed in 2003 and my mom in 2008. They had a will but I believe they
left another one with the lawyer they trusted with their lives. I sat with the
lawyer, my parents and the secretary and my father said that Mr…. knows how he
is going to split the money between you, your sister and niece. When my sister
and I asked the lawyer, he told us both over the phone, ‘how do you expect me to
know what your father did with the money? Why are you asking me?’
All has taken place in NY.
Is there a way I can prove that there is some documentation that is on file?
The lawyer is still alive as of the end of 2016
