Subrogation Limitation Statutes in Florida The statute of limitations for subrogation cases in Florida varies based on the nature of the claim. For negligence actions, House Bill 837 has reduced the statute of limitations from 4 years to 2 years.
The Anti-Subrogation Rule (“ASR”) is a common law defense to subrogation. It states that a subrogated insurance company standing in the shoes of its insured cannot bring a subrogation action against or sue its own insured.
If you have insurance and someone files a subrogation claim against you, the best step you can take is to notify your insurer immediately. Most insurance contracts require you to let them know about accidents in a timely manner, regardless of who's at fault.
When factoring comparative negligence and improper referrals, the recovery rate should be somewhere in the range of 85-90%. This requires adjusters properly identifying subrogation, assessing comparative negligence and pursuing only what they are entitled to.
How long does subrogation take? In general, the average subrogation process takes around 6-months. However, depending on the severity of the accident in question, it could take longer.
In most subrogation cases, an individual's insurance company pays its client's claim directly, then seeks reimbursement from the other party's insurance company. Subrogation is most common in an auto insurance policy but also occurs in property/casualty and healthcare policy claims.
Receiving a subrogation letter can seem problematic, but it does not have to be. Instead, reach out to your car accident attorney immediately to provide a copy of the letter and any information about the claims you made. If you received compensation from the insurance company, do not ignore this letter.
