A: A Florida attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. I'm sorry for your difficult situation. You could reach to legal aid or pro bono legal services to discuss your options based on financial hardship - whether bankruptcy, convincing the subrogation departments of the insurance carriers that you have no assets with which any judgment could be satisfied, or other. Based on the fact that you have three pending cases, try to seek solid guidance - possibly from one of the organizations that offers legal aid to the public. Don't ignore the matter - that could possibly result in the other parties obtaining judgments. Accidents aside, also look into public resources and emergency housing assistance that could help to get a roof over you and your child's heads. I hope your situation turns around for the better. Good luck
