Subrogation can be one of the most effective tools available to recover claim payments, but only if the opportunity is identified
and protected from the outset.
In this presentation, RMC lawyers Vincent Messier (Donati Maisonneuve, Montreal), Claire Dowden (Cox & Palmer, St John’s)
and Michael Zacharias (Fillmore Riley LLP, Winnipeg) provide a practical discussion on how claims professionals can maximize
recovery opportunities while avoiding common mistakes that can undermine a potential subrogation claim.
Topics include:
- When to subrogate, and when not to
- Strategies from the plaintiff perspective
- Preserving evidence and involving the right parties early
- Understanding covenants to insure and waivers of subrogation
- Common pitfalls that can eliminate recovery opportunities before litigation even begins
Through real world examples and practical guidance, you’ll gain a better understanding of the steps that should be taken from day
one to preserve your insurer’s rights and improve the chances of a successful recovery.
