FAQ
The duration of the subrogation process can vary widely depending on the complexity of the case, the availability of evidence, and the cooperation of the involved parties. Some cases may be resolved within a few months, while others can take years to reach a conclusion.
The time needed for recovery varies with each claim and could take up to one year or longer. What do I need to do during the deductible recovery process? Your claim handler will contact you if there's any additional information we need from you.
Insurance companies don't have forever to make a subrogation claim. While the statutory limitations period can vary depending on the type of subrogation claim made—and in which jurisdiction it is made—the standard statute of limitations ranges from one to six years.
The subrogation process can take weeks, months, or sometimes years to complete, depending on the circumstances of the accident, the complexity of the claim, and the state where it occurred.
Your insurer may choose to attempt to get reimbursement from the at-fault party after the initial claim is finalized via subrogation. If subrogation is successful and they do get that reimbursement, they'll refund your deductible. Subrogation can take months and months. And they may not be able to collect at all.
Subrogation allows your insurer to recoup costs (medical payments, repairs, etc.), including your deductible, from the at-fault driver's insurance company, if the accident wasn't your fault. A successful subrogation means a refund for you and your insurer.
Review contract terms to understand the specific requirements for the waiver. Contact your insurance provider or broker for guidance. Request the waiver of subrogation from your insurance provider (usually done in writing and includes details about the agreement and why the waiver is needed).
