Most of us go about our daily lives without worrying about any sort of legal action taken against us. You may think you’ll never be sued, but how can you be truly certain?
“Great Aunt Ellen” thought it would never happen to her, according to an example from the book, Asset Protection by Robert Mintz, Esq.
——————————
Great Aunt Ellen made it 92 years without being sued. No one ever told her she might consider protecting herself, and she thought everyday people like her don’t get sued out of the blue. In this story, her nephew needed to purchase a car and Great Aunt Ellen was happy to help by lending him money for it.
Shortly after buying the car, he drove through a stop sign; hit another car, and the other driver landed in the hospital.
While lying in pain in the hospital bed, the injured victim of this crash Googled “attorney” and quickly hired a local legal counsel. The attorney did a little digging, only to find that the nephew had no money or assets. But the attorney didn’t stop there, finding that Great Aunt Ellen was related to this nephew.
Long story short, the injured driver sued her, and the court ruled that she should have known her nephew was a bad driver. Great Aunt Ellen lost her home and her ENTIRE life’s savings.
