getting sued for an accident that happened two years ago, and was already settled

r/

long story short, i was at a 4-way, as i was entering the intersection i got hit by someone who blew the stop sign. thankfully there was a dash cam and the other driver got ticketed. i got lawyers, we settled a little bit under a year later after the accident. i signed a paper that i wouldn’t be able to sue regarding this case and i think it was the same for them. now the driver is trying to sue me for negligence for causing the crash. i have already contacted my lawyers who represented me but im having major anxiety about this. (im just a person who worries and is scared a lot.)
Location: NV

any other advice or questions i should ask my lawyers? i’m under 25 and don’t have anyone to really go to to talk about this with.

    What do you mean “trying to sue”?

    > for negligence

    What does that mean exactly? What does the paperwork say?

    Personal injury claims often come later, property damage is usually settled fairly quickly.
