How do I protect my assets?
I currently live in another state. I was involved in a very very minor car accident back in February with a city bus and it was deemed my fault. Then in June I was in another car accident that was deemed the other person's fault so I ended up filing a suit against the insurance and received my check this week for it. My insurance (from Februarys accident) doesn't want to pay the lawyers due to the fact that the accident only caused a minor dent in my passenger door. So now I was served court papers last week for being sued. How do I protect my settlement check from this since I just received it?
