Test Your Subrogation Knowledge!

By David H. Maybank, Jr., J.D.

A, B and C are involved in a three-car accident on January 1, 2000. There is no dispute that A & B both contributed to the accident, which caused C to suffer property damages and bodily injuries. The carrier for A pays the claim made by C because B refused to contribute to the settlement and A was concerned with the exposure and costs to defend.

What is the best recourse for A's carrier?
