1. They can ask anything arguably relevant. That's why it's called 'discovery'. Your lawyer is there to protect you from harassment or inappropriate questions.
2. If it is relevant, sure they do. Your lawyer will tell you what to answer and what not to answer.
3. Were you accompanied by a lawyer? If not you took your chances. They can ask anything they want to but certain questions might not have to be answered. Discovery is a process that gives the opposing side a chance to learn everything they can and want to know. Not all of what you say may be accepted by the court at a trial, but usually you have to answer all the questions (except if your atty stops you).
4. Yes - they can ask anything they want, but it is up to your lawyer to object if the question is not relevant. What your relative's occupation is, or what kind of business he has, doesn't seem relevant for a personal injury case unless the relative was there and witnessed the accident, or it happened at the relative's place of business.l
5. Absolutely. I have asked in discovery completely non-relevant questions just to see if the defense would object. A good lawyer won't even allow me to finish the sentence without objecting. Judobigdog
6. Singh Is Kinng, I'm sorry to hear about your situation. I was hurt once in Idaho when a delivery truck backed over my foot at work. My company attempted to settle with me quickly because they knew it wasn't my fault. I called a local accident lawyer in my city who gave me great advice and I was able to get a medium sized settlement to cover my medical bills that weren't covered by my primary insurance. I'd suggest you find a accident lawyer in your area. http://www.accidentlawyerlocator.com My injury lawyer was help me because they expect to make some money at the same time. Try visiting a lawyer to see if they can help. Good Luck
