You dont have to accept all assets. Best to discuss with an attorney.

You are not required to accept anything you don't want; depending on the nature of the asset and the type of probate you may be able to abandon worthless property; but talk to a lawyer (just because you don't want particular property does not necessarily mean the estate may not be liable for expenses for the property; it gets complicated).
