Are you liable if someone gets hurt on your property while helping you?
Maybe. It depends on how and why they were injured. You invited them on your property, so you owe them a high duty of care. If they were injured due to a faulty step or a hole in the ground that you should have repaired, you'd be liable. However, if they were injured due to their own negligence, you wouldn't be. For example, if I brought my own chain saw and my own beer onto your property and managed to cut myself while drunk, you probably wouldn't be liable.
Explain the set off provisions of Va under insurance?
The way that it works is you take all of the available coverage for the loss and arrive at the total available coverage for the loss. The liable car pays it coverage up to the avaiable limit The car of the injured party gets a set off of the amount of the liable car if the liable car's policy is less than that of the injured insured party Then the policy of the car under which the injured isured party is an insured by definition pays it full coverage.
