I am currently bankrupt and my father passed away within 180 of filing for bankruptcy and has left me a large sum of money. I understand the legal side that my inheritance goes to my bankruptcy trustee to pay the creditors but my question is how can I stop losing all my inheritance to my bankruptcy trustee? Is there any way I can forfeit my inheritance after the fact or is there anyway I can not disclose my inheritance and put it in a trust for my child,
