Can an insurance company sue you for a car accident? Absolutely. It’s called a subrogation claim which means the insurance company is trying to get reimbursement from you for the money that it paid out to its driver. This usually happens if you are found at fault for the car accident and you don’t have insurance or you are underinsured.
The ultimate goal is for the insurance company to get back the money it paid out but most times, it will settle for less. These companies are aware that the recipients of subrogation claims are generally those who don’t have the money to spend on litigation. That’s why it wants the matter done quickly and will settle for less than the claim is asking for.
