Q: I was driving my friends car and hit another car that ended up killing someone and now I’m being sued do I need a lawyer
A:
You need to contact: (1) your insurance company, (2) your friend's insurance company, and (3) avoid speaking with anyone else about the case or posting about it on the internet. Either your insurance or your friend's will provide you with an attorney.
