You don't need to file bankruptcy. Your parent's estate is responsible for their debts. The estate must be probated and their debts must be paid before any assets can be distributed to the heirs. If the debts are greater than the assets in the estate the estate will be declared insolvent, the court will order a scheme of payment from limited funds, if any, and if there is not enough money the creditors are out of luck.
