§ 4.24[1] Subrogation Rights

Minnesota recognizes both the equitable right of subrogation1 and
the contractual right of subrogation.2 An insurer may also enforce
reimbursement and subrogation provisions under the terms of its
policy, and may also seek equitable subrogation where the policy is
silent with regard to its rights of recovery.3 An insurer may even
proceed against the benefits of a UM policy, with appropriate
language.4 This is because use of the term “responsible” is broader
than the term “legally responsible.”5

Of the two types of subrogation, conventional and equitable;
conventional subrogation is contractual and is based on an agreement
between parties, whereas equitable subrogation has its origin in
common law and equity.6 Notwithstanding the above, there is no
common law right to subrogation in no-fault settings outside of the
statutorily-authorized subrogation, contribution and indemnity set
forth in the Minnesota statutes.7

Section 60A.41 specifically prohibits an insurer from proceeding
against its own insured in a subrogation claim where the loss is the
result of an unintentional act.8 This means an insurer may not
subrogate itself to the rights of its insured to proceed against another
person insured for the same loss, by the same insurer, under equitable
subrogation principles. It cannot seek reimbursement of amounts
paid to an insured under a renter’s insurance policy from proceeds
received by the insured from a tortfeasor who was insured by the
same insurer under an automobile liability policy and who had
backed her car into the insured’s rented dwelling, causing damage to
insured’s personal property.9

 Gary L. Wickert is an insurance trial lawyer and is regarded as one

of the world's leading experts on insurance subrogation. He is the
author of several subrogation books and legal treatises and is a
national and international speaker and lecturer on subrogation and
motivational topics. Mr. Wickert is also a politician in Wisconsin,
serving his fifth term as Town Supervisor in the Township of
Cedarburg. After 15 years as the youngest managing partner in the
history of the 30-lawyer Houston law firm of Hughes, Watters &
Askanase, L.L.P., he returned to his native Wisconsin in 1998 and
co-founded the firm of Matthiesen, Wickert & Lehrer, S.C. He
oversees a National Recovery Program which includes a network of
nearly 300 contracted subrogation law firms in all 50 states, Mexico,
Canada and the United Kingdom and boasts recoveries of more than
$500 million in recoveries and credits for more than 250 insurance
companies. Gary Wickert is also a commercial fiction author and his
latest political thriller, Dark Redemption (Tudor Publishing), is
available on www.Amazon.com.

Licensed in both Texas and Wisconsin, Mr. Wickert is double
board-certified in personal injury law and civil trial law by the Texas
Board of Legal Specialization
. He is nationally certified as a Civil
Trial Advocate
 by the National Board of Trial Advocacy (NBTA), for
whom he has written and graded product liability questions contained
on the NBTA national certification exam taken by trial lawyers
around the country. For over 25 years, he has served as an expert
witness on subrogation and insurance related issues and has been
consulted by insurance carriers, lawyers, and legislative bodies from
several states. He is a licensed arbitrator and has attended more than
750 mediations in more than 30 different states. He is one of only a
few lawyers to have ever represented a client before the United
States Supreme Court on a subrogation issue.
