Will the person that caused the accident have to pay the settlement personally?

Normally, the answer is no. Most drivers, homeowners and property owners buy liability insurance. The insurance company that insures the defendant pays for both the entire legal defense (including experts) and also pays any settlement or judgment against the defendant. Some large corporations and many governmental agencies do not have insurance and do pay settlements directly. In the average case, however, there is no personal payment by the wrongdoer.
