At Rathbone Group, our subrogation lawyers work in a wide array of fields. Working closely with our knowledgeable team of subrogation specialists, our attorneys, licensed in dozens of state and federal jurisdictions, deftly navigate the subrogation process in a variety of fields of law
Auto
Subrogated automotive claims with insured tortfeasors present the benefit of increased recovery opportunities, but also the difficulty of facing a more vigorous defense, making the subrogation of insured auto claims a challenge.
Property / Home / Fire
Because navigating a complex property issue can be a daunting task, property insurers require an experienced subrogation legal team to maximize chances of recovery.
Arbitration
Subrogation arbitration can be tricky. Rathbone Group’s Arbitration Team can prepare even the most complex arbitration filings in any forum, and handle them through completion.
Self-Insured
Using a self-insured retention or large deductible policy to save on insurance costs does not require absorbing uncovered auto, property, product failure, injury, workers’ compensation, or MedPay and health losses as a cost of doing business.
Uninsured
The recovery of uninsured subrogation claims require creative tools to recover and thoughtful strategy concerning costs.
Autonomous Vehicles
Semi-autonomous vehicles are on the road today, with many car manufacturers working diligently on creating viable autonomous vehicles for widespread public use.
Government Entity
Unique rules, procedures, jurisdictional issues and deadlines can make the subrogation of government entity claims extremely complicated. There is an incredible amount of variation in state subrogation laws for claims against government entities.
Workers’ Compensation
Yes, you can subrogate worker’s compensation claims, but it is a complex area of law and requires an experienced hand. Each state has its own legal framework governing worker’s compensation.
Utility Claims
Whether installed overhead, underground, or a combination of both, electric utility distribution systems all work as a part of a massive infrastructure transporting energy from power generators to end users.
Unpaid Insurance Premium
Unfortunately, there are times when pursuing recovery of unpaid premiums from commercial entities is necessary. When insurance companies have premiums and deductibles that have not been paid, pursuing the delinquent party via subrogation can become contentious and complex.
Maritime and Admiralty
For maritime clients, having a sophisticated and experienced subrogation legal team at your side is paramount. Subrogated maritime claims can involve contract disputes, collisions, delays, groundings, sinking, loss of cargo, as well as injury to employees and others.
