Legal Question in Personal Injury in Massachusetts

Briefly I was not the owner nor involved in the car accident I allowed a 18 year old to live in my household due to the poor household conditions they lived in. A car accident inwhich he/she was in occured. At the time the individual did not stay under my roof he/she was busy partying he/she got into a vehicle and neither had a liscense. (I am told it was a suicide pack) regardless the driver died the vehicle owner was jailed however the person who again resides in one of my homes is attempting to sue my vehicle insurance for more money than what was awarded. I am fighting this because of principal the insurance is for my relatives and family not an outsider. What is the legal aspect of this in massachusetts and how do I go about getting a lawyer tor epresent my interests.
