Nederlands naar Engels Juridisch / patenten Juridisch (algemeen) legacies, estate
Indien de nalatenschap negatief is (er zijn dan meer schulden dan bezittingen), bent u als erfgenaam in uw privévermogen aansprakelijk voor de schulden van de overledene.
Does anyone know the right translation for "aansprakelijk in uw privévermogen" bit? I know what it means but feel that "liable with your private assets" is not correct, unless anyone can confirm that it is? Many thanks for your input!

liable with your private assets

I think either of these would do:

“your private assets are liable for”
“liable with your private assets”

see e.g.:

▶ Unincorporated business structures (Rechtvormen zonder rechtspersoonlijkheid)
In these unincorporated legal forms, you (and your private assets) are liable for the debts of your business.

[...]

▶ Incorporated business structures (Rechtvormen met rechtspersoonlijkheid)
In these incorporated legal forms you and your private assets are, in most cases, protected from the debts of your business.
