When you say disinherited, I assume you mean that he did not include you in the will or expressly wrote in his will that you are not to receive any gifts. It is his right to do that if he wishes. If your husband received an inheritance and he is deceased, it may be possible for your daughter to inherit, depending on how the will is written. The only other way to contest the will is that if he made a codicil (amendment) to the will, disinheriting you, AND that you can PROVE that he was coerced, under duress, incapacitated at the time or it was not executed properly.
