Legal Question in Personal Injury in California
I'm an about-to-graduate college student, and I'm being sued for $1.3 million in damages for an accident that I was involved in. If I liquidated all of my assets, I might be able to come up with $15,000. What happens in the event the suit goes through, and the plaintiff is awarded the full amount?

I need much more information than what is contained in this post.Did you have insurance? If so how much? That is only for starters.
Your best hope is to have a smart attorney take a quick look to see if the suit can be defended or avoided. I would have to look at the allegations and hear your side. Then, maybe there is a way to get out of it, or defend. Otherwise, if they get a judgment against you, they could collect on it possibly for the rest of your life, garnishing wages and liening your property and bank accounts.
