Real Estate / Polish law on inheritance and real estate [42]
Hello
Answering to your question, basing on my experiences and knowledge:
1. First thing is to identify this property - where is it, what is the status of it (who's registered as as an owner or a person entitled to any other kinds of rights) - first step for such identification could be by the number it has in the land register.
2. If you don't have such numer it's more complicated and requires a bit of investigation. But for expirienced lawyer establishing such things should not be a problem even if the only thing he/she knows is the physical location of the property. Quite useful information could be about what kind of property it is - is it just a ground or is this ground builded over with building (what kind of) or the location, etc.
3. Then there should be established your family situation - how many potential heirs has to be considered in the case or if any legal procedures refered to the inheritance was undertaken.
4. Problem of the impact of the US will over polish laws is more complicated and requires analising of the documents, but it's surely good thing you had not signed any statement related to the will.
5. I think it could be a good idea to search for a lawyer/solicitor in Poland.
6. if you have any further questions - contact me on priv.
Regards
Wo'T
