The lawyer has contacted me a few times. I received a lawyers lien letter some time ago. I recently filed Ch. 13 bankruptcy. This is already my 2nd bankruptcy. I understand dui's are dischargeable. I notified my bankruptcy lawyer of the pending civil suit. While in bankruptcy can they still make me pay fees for damages and loses? What will this lawyer try to get from me? Shall I be speaking with this lawyer directly? Thanks.
Additional information
The lawsuit is for personal injury. The injuries were sustained from a dui-related accident to a bystander. As for property damage, I guess that will be a separate lawsuit. The car I was driving was a rental car, and the rental agreement voids my insurance coverage because of the dui. The rental company will also be seeking compensation for the car damaged. The plaintiff spent a few days in the hospital, to my knowledge. Answers (3)

I am not sure what you are being sued for.
Was this a DUI with an accident and injuries? Are you being sued for injuries property damage caused by you? More facts are needed. You should consult with an attorney.
