UK, Ireland / Looking for reliable Polish lawyer in UK [2]

Hi all,
I am half Polish (Polish father now deceased) and unfortunately do not speak the language. I am looking for a Polish lawyer, English speaking, in the UK to help with an inheritance issue that has come up.
My brother and I have been served papers by a court in Krakow relating to some inheritance case involving my Aunt, who died in 1988. I have no idea what this is about as the papers are very difficult to make sense of, even in the English translation, but it seems this is to do with the property she lived in which was taken over by the State when she died. She left no children and it seems my brother and I are her closest relatives and potenital inheritors.
However I may have completely misunderstood this. Why the matter should come up now after 36 years I do not know.
We urgently need help from a lawyer who can understand the documents, tell us what is involved and advise on next steps (if any). Ideally this would be someone in London or the South East of England.
Can anyone help recommend someone? I would be very grateful.
Thanks in advance,
Donald
