Scumbags.
These laws are set up to protect corporate, not the consumer.

If you wanna argue whether they should be on the hook then fine. But wouldn't the part where they said they didn't provide counsel to the killer even though his lawyer declared himself a lawyer with "Progressive Advanced Insurance Company" tell you there's serious malfeasance afoot?

This guy's a layperson, not a lawyer. He doesn't realize what is actually going on so he's making shit up. Progressive didn't defend the 'killer', they entered on behalf of Progressive and defended their rights in the action. I'd be willing to bet that they actually ended up as a party in the case. Ultimately if they didn't they'd have almost certainly lost their right to challenge the underlying liability of the 'killer' in this case and would've had 3 legs kicked out from under their stool on any later litigation to protect their interests. This is a blogger that doesn't understand the law or what he's looking at. Progressive did what any responsible business would've done.

I think I'd be contacting the Insurance Regulation Board in your state to see about the legality of your sisters insurer representing the defendent. And sorry for your loss man. A person has to lose a sibling to know how it feels. Life's not fair

Progressive has every right to argue in court that her underinsured motorists coverage shouldn't pay out, if they think it was partially her fault and the other insurance company (which wasn't on the hook for hardly any money at all) isn't interested in doing anything about it.

i can understand progressive not wanting to pay on the claim. whether it's right or wrong is subject to opinion; but i would think if the defense in the case is coming from progressive then there has to be an issue there. |

Just a question, if the defendant in this case wins, would he turn around and sue Progressive for damages as the insurance carrier of her car?

insurance and lawyers, yup, sounds like hell. One can say that Progressive didn't do anything wrong, but it would be more difficult to argue that they did anything right as members of human race.

I'm about to dump Progressive anyway (I need house insurance and am switching my auto to the same new company). This makes me feel good about doing it.
