A: Greetings. We are unclear as to the details of your fact pattern. We suggest you meet with an attorney who will be able to work through your story and properly determine your exposure. According to what you wrote, you say "me or my employer" is being sued. You must find out if "you" are indeed being sued. If so, an attorney will be able to determine, after meeting with you, whether you should retain counsel separate from your employer.
