When a probate is filed there is a statutory period during which notice of the probate is published and creditors can file a claim for any debt owed by the decedent. You must file proof of your claim and it must be filed in a timely manner. You can contact the court to see if your claim can be filed.

If the lien is a mortgage or a tax lien, the bankruptcy may not have discharged the debt, and the estate would have to be probated. The estate may be bankrupt, and there is usually a state procedure for estate bankruptcy. Federal bankruptcy does not apply. Consult a local attorney experienced in estates.
