Law / A general legal question about inheritance in Poland - debts [31]

Merged: Rejecting inheritance of a debt whilst living in the UK

Hi all,

Hoping that there is someone out there that may be able to offer some advice.

I am a UK born citizen and married to my wife who moved here from Poland nearly ten years ago.

We recently learnt that her uncle had passed away, and has subsequently left some considerable debts.

We understand that at some point, as relatives reject the inheritance of these debts, my wife and our children may become liable for them, and in turn will need to reject the debts themselves.

The difficulty in this arises in the fact we live in the UK.

Has anyone had any experience of a similar situation? And any advice as to what we need to do to sort this (hopefully without having to make a trip to Poland)?

Looking forward to any advice offered.
