Has anyone ever been subpoeaned?
Long story short, about 2 years ago I witnessed an accident where a car struck a pedestrian. It happened right in front of me while I was driving my tractor trailer.
When the Police came, I gave a statement because it happened right in front of me and I thought it was the right thing to do. Shortly afterwards I was contacted by a lawyer who wanted to come to my work and take a statement. I asked my company HR director and he said absolutely not. He told me to tell the lawyer to refer to the statement I gave to the Police and if they needed any more info they should subpoena me.
Well last night after almost 2 years I was served. I got a subpoena to appear at a local courthouse for a deposition.
Has anyone else ever done this?? Even though I was only a witness and not involved in any way, do I need a lawyer?
Any info or feedback is appreciated.
