Probably not, unless he left a Will that names you as a beneficiary. You should consult with an attorney to address your specific issues as your question is very generic.

How can we see the will?

It is a crime to fail to file a will for probate. I couldn't guess what any particular attorney would charge. You should hire an attorney in the county where the mother resided at the time of her death.

Can I get control over my father's estate if I live in a different estate than he does?

Yes, if your father does not have a Will appointing an executor or if none of the appointed executors want to be appointed, you can petition the court where your father's property is located to have yourself appointed as administrator of the estate. The Court will make you post a bond in the amount of the value of the property. The premium for the bond can be paid from the property in your father's estate.
