Q: My mother was in accident and died. It was head on the car behind her hit her also. The two people in that car are suing estate for $75.000. She only had $2,000 in estate account. Will I and my sister be liable to pay this?

A: if found guilty of negligence your mothers a state may be liable to pay damages to those who were injured in the accident.  However those damages would be limited to the amount of money that if India state, unless your mother had automobile accident insurance at the time of the accident.  If she had insurance you should contact the auto accident insurance company because they will both provide a defense and pay damages up to the limit of the insurance coverage.

I cannot imagine a situation where you or your sister would be personally responsible for your deceased mother's actions.
