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.
When you file a claim, your insurer can try to recover costs from the person responsible for your injury or property damage. This is known as subrogation. For example: Your insurance company pays your doctor for your treatment following an auto accident that someone else caused.
You will want to immediately notify your own insurer to determine how they can assist you. A subrogation claim is not going to go away on its own. If you ignore the letter, the insurer will file a lawsuit against you, the party being held responsible, and the insurer will win, almost every time.
