What to Do if You are Being Sued When You Did Not Have Insurance for an Accident

If you get sued for an accident where you did not have insurance, where you think it was your fault or not, you need to consult a skilled lawyer handling auto accident claims in Orlando to determine your rights. This process can be very involved and is difficult to handle on your own. These cases are referred to as subrogation lawsuits. The consequence of getting a final judgment entered against you in one of these cases is that your driver’s license could be suspended until the final judgment is paid off.
