Legal Question

Beneficiary

My father just passed away he had no will. His life insurance policy payed out 100% to one sibling who is listed as the beneficiary.

We are a total of four siblings and each of us received 5%. We should have received 25% each. Can we sue the sibling to distribute the remaining balance evenly?
