Your inheritance is an asset that you would need to disclose to the bankruptcy court if you filed for bankruptcy. It doesn't matter if you have received the money yet or not at the time you file for bankruptcy.
What you should do is contact a local bankruptcy attorney for assistance to see how much of the inheritance you would be able to keep in a bankruptcy.
