Legal Question in Civil Litigation in California

My son (17 year old ran into an old lady) on his way to school. The accident happened right in front of school (Anaheim California). My son was riding his skateboard.

Can she sue parents or our son?

Parents can be sued up to $25k to cover medical bills and such. If you have a homeowner policy get them involved.

Parents are responsible for the negligent acts of their children, up to $25,000. Your homeowners insurance will cover the claim. If the lady does sue, she will probably sue you and your son.
