If you’re inherited any thing from your father, including movable or immovable property, you’re liable to repay the debt of your father upto the higher limit of your inheritance from him. Having said that, it is advisable that all 3 of you should reply to this legal notice. Contact a lawyer to draft and send the reply on your behalf.
