accident - lawsuit

[Sarah Jones]

I got in a car accident several months ago. I was found at fault, and my insurance only covered the minimum which is around $20k, but the person claims she needs surgery and requires $200k , she's getting a lawyer to sue. I was already served. The insurance company gave me a defense lawyer. I want to know

1) I have a house , i bought a few years ago i dont know how much equity i have.. i have no money at all just an investment house and my primary resident... if she wins can she force me to sell my investment house? How does it work, can they really force you to sell your house or will they just put a lein?

Sarah, 1. stop posting information there. You might say something that can go against you. 2. And this goes for everyone, think about a personal umbrella policy to cover you.
