Defending Drivers in Subrogation Lawsuits

Latest News

Subrogation is the legal process by which an insurance company seeks reimbursement after it has already paid a claim for an accident on behalf of its insured.

For example, if a person caused an auto accident and did not have insurance at the time, the injured driver’s insurance company would pay the injured party for property damage and/or bodily injury. The insurance company would then seek to collect from the at-fault driver the amount it pays to the injured driver. Usually, this means that the insurance company will sue the at-fault driver to obtain a judgment for the amount it paid.

Subrogation can also occur if you were in a car accident and filed a property damage claim with your insurance company, your collision insurance, and comprehensive auto insurance would pay to have your vehicle fixed. If the accident was later determined to be the fault of the other driver, however, your insurance company would file for reimbursement against the other driver’s auto insurance policy.
