Q: My friend was in an accident with my vehicle. The other person could sue me. Can they take my 50% of my lawn care busine
He is not insured. I am 10,000 per person. I am just worried a lawsuit could take my business. I don't really have assets besides that
A: I assume your car was insured. If yoiur friend has insurance then you have secondary coverage. I don't see them going after you but it's possible--depends on their injuries, medical bills, amouint of your insurance. Discuss situation with a bankruptcy attorney so that IF they get as far as a judgment you can instantly pivot to protect.
