Re: possibly being Sued as a corporation
hi
It probably makes little difference. In all probability the corporation will have insurance and will recover from their insurance company. The difficulty is that the insurance company will then inherit the right of action in respect of any negligence and are then likely to pursue this in the name of the corporation.
The important thing here is for you to obtain advice on whether or not there has been negligence. We will be happy to assist in this.
