{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"DefinedTerm","name":"Subrogation","description":"Subrogation allows an insurer, having paid a claim, to step into the insured's legal shoes and pursue the party actually responsible for the loss. The principle is simple: whoever caused the damage should bear the cost, not the insurer. In cargo and transport insurance, this mechanism is routinely invoked when a carrier's negligence causes damage and the shipper's insurer picks up the bill – the insurer then seeks reimbursement directly from the carrier.
