Since you were driving a company vehicle, the company (your employer) is liable for the accident because the company is the registered owner of the vehicle. Also, an employer is liable for the negligence of an employee which occurs during the course and scope of employment.The company is primarily liable; however, you are also liable as the driver of the vehicle.  The attorney will be going after the company in the lawsuit for negligence to obtain compensation.  You are being named as the driver in a potential lawsuit to cover all bases on the part of the attorney.
