Legal Question in Personal Injury in Nevada

About a year ago my brother, my two friends and I got in a car accident. we were trying to turn left but we were in the middle lane so tried to switch lanes and turn left however missed the blind spot and the car behind us and we crashed. We stopped and talked. Called the police. The other guy was very nice about it because my brother was shocked from having his first crash. Since no one was hurt it wasn't an emergency and cops were taking really long to arrive. It had been about 30 minutes. We were on our way to a meeting and the guy was busy to so we just shared our informations and left because the guy said he was ok and no on in our car was hurt. Even both of our cars didn't get alot of visible marks. However just yesterday the guy sued us for $10,000 because he was hurt mentally or something. What do I do.

File a claim with your insurance company. They will defend the lawsuit. If you don't have insurance, you will have to hire a lawyer to defend you. I would require a three thousand dollar retainer. You may contact me at [email protected].
