Re: Credit Card Debts & Car Loan

Once you have submitted your mother's will to the court with your application of letters, you will have to follow the notice requirements. You will not be personally liable for your mother's debts. But, you will, as Personal Representative. The lender's lien on her car will survive her. You will have to disperse the assets accordingly.

Good Luck
