Re: not my fault
Talk to your insurance agent. Your policy probably does not apply to intentional acts by third parties. So, the primary issue for you to focus on is whether your action(s) contributed to the incident. Did you serve alcohol to someone under age 21? Did you know that the guy who injured the claimant was a violent person prone to violence?
