In the hypothetical suit by the injured driver, the Plaintiff may get to your mother - in-law's interest in the property she owns with your wife. Unless you or your wife are at fault in the accident, there doesn't seem to be a basis for coming after you two. Different facts could mean a different liability assessment.

Good luck
