Legal Question in Workers Comp in Georgia
I run a small car transport company and I have recently hired a new employee bringing my total up to 3. I realize that I now need workman's comp insurance. If I do not have insurance and an accident occurs, can my personal assets be seized or just the company's assets?
Thanks,
Car Transporter

The short answer is yes, eventually. How hard it is just depends on how your company is set up. Ultimately it's better to have insuance. I know it's expensive, but the penalties if you don't have it are severe.
