Can a person sue a homeowner after suing the home insurance company for the same accident?

Generally No. If you have already sued the Home Insurance Company, then you have already sued by default the Homeowner. You can not have sued one without already having sued the other. If a property owner is liable to you for an accidental injury, The home owner may have insurance to cover those liabilities. The insurance company would not be the cause of an accident. If you sue an insured homeowner, their insurance company is only enjoined in the suit by virtue of the coverage provided to their insured home owner who has been sued. The homeowners insurance company may cover the cost of defense of the suit filed against the insured homeowner and may pay awards or judgments up to the limits of the homeowners insurance policy on behalf of that insured homeowner. Bear in mind that the Insurance Company is not liable for an accident, The insurance company may be liable for damages and awards based on assertions and finding of liability on the part of the insured homeowner. If your suit failed (or you Lost the suit), Then that means the homeowner was found not liable for your injuries. If you have accepted a settlement from the insurance company, that settlement will have settled your claims against the homeowner.

If your car is hit by debris from a roof will the homeowner's insurance pay or will your car insurance have to pay?

Depends if it is (1)your roof and your car, (2)your neighbors roof and your car, or (3)your roof and your neighbors car. 1 - You can't sue yourself so your homeowner's liability is out of the question, if you have comprehensive coverage on your car it will be subject to that deductible and your car insurance will pay. 2 - Your neighbors homeowner's liability coverage will pay for the damage to your car. 3 - Your homeowner's liability coverage will pay for damage to their vehicle. 2 or 3 you may want to get an estimate on how much it will cost to fix your vehicle, having a homeowners claim can seriously impact your ability to qualify for competitive homeowners insurance rates and you should only file claims against your homeowners if it is truly necessary. I would say if the cost to repair the car is under $2500 you should work out an agreement with to pay out of pocket instead of through homeowners, unless you can get a gaurantee in writing from the homeowners insurance saying your rates will not go up due to the claim. Good luck.
