What is the name of your state? California
My husband collied with a pedestrian at about 5mph near a crosswalk. The Ped ran out from behind an electrical box to get across the street fast (which he told my husband.) The car didn't even hit his person, he put his hand out and the hood hit his hand and he fell on his bottom. The police weren't called, there is no police report. He contacted us 2 days after the accident to let us know that he was all right and just needed to reimbursed for a taxi ride. It's been over a year and we just got a summons, he's suing us and my husband's company because he was leaving work when it happened (although he was on a public street.) Anyway, it seems like he's just trying to get money out of us, and we really don't have anything. Does anyone know how these suits usually resolve? Any advice? Our insurance company is supposed to be taking care of everything including legal representation. I'm really upset about the whole thing.
