A Civil Litigation Webinar

Reducing Exposure: Section 29 in New York

Section 29 in New York permits the carrier to sue “in the shoes” of the claimant/petitioner. Why would a claimant/petitioner not sue a third party? What can you do if they refuse? What are the statutory prerequisites to commencing a subrogation action? What are the proofs and legal standards involved for common third-party causes of action?

In this LIVE webinar on Monday, July 22, 2024, Greg Lois will boil down the complex issue of subrogation into the basics!

  • Course Outline
  • Instances where a claimant/petitioner might not file a third-party action
  • The legal requirements under Section 29(2)
  • What to do before and after filing the subrogation complaint
  • How to drive toward immediate settlement to minimize costs
