| You
need to personally arrange for the defense of any lawsuits against you. This usually
involves hiring an experienced car accident attorney, who can advise and
defend you in court. You will have to pay the attorney's fees and other court
related costs, even if you ultimately are found not to be legally responsible
for the accident. If
you are found to be liable for damages, a judgment will be entered against
you by the court for a specific sum of money. If the injuries are severe or the
damage extreme, the judgment could be a very large sum of money, potentially hundreds
of thousands of dollars. If you fail to pay or are unable to pay the full amount
of the judgment, the winning party may sue to collect from you. If you don't have
car insurance, now is the time to protect yourself and buy an auto insurance
policy. |
