California Personal Injury
Settlement Lawyer
Will the person that caused the accident have to pay the settlement personally?
Normally, the answer is no. Most drivers, homeowners and property owners buy
liability insurance. The insurance company that insures the defendant pays for
both the entire legal defense (including experts) and also pays any settlement
or judgment against the defendant. Some large corporations and many governmental
agencies do not have insurance and do pay settlements directly. In the average
case, however, there is no personal payment by the wrongdoer.
