Tort Claim Filed Against Me For Car Accident, Uninsured - Los Angeles, Ca, Usa
Location: Los Angeles, California, USA
Back in March I was hit by someone while driving; I was in the middle of a 4-way Stop intersection when they ran the stop sign and T-Boned me. I didn't have car insurance at the time. Of course they flipped and blamed me (even though as far as logic dictates the damage clearly indicates they hit me but alas I'm uninsured.)
This past month I received this Tort Claim in the mail saying the damages to them are approx $19k. What should I do next? Should I try to find a lawyer? I assume I should not talk to them unless I have a lawyer. Is this likely to become a lawsuit? What could happen if they sue and win? I have about $4k to my name, debt notwithstanding so I wouldn't be able to pay. What's the point at which I could no longer ignore them? Anything else I should be considering?
I lost my license over this and am now on a restricted license. I have car insurance but the low cost auto company doesn't do retroactive coverage.
Thank you!!!
