Hi Tu and Team, Please see below from the carrier. The broker is happy to go back to them and seek clarity if there are any questions. The insurance carrier positions is that waivers of subrogation are not standard and not allowed on legal malpractice policies. This is because they could interfere with the insurer's rights and increase unnecessary risks. They are appropriate for property,general liability or workers' comp policies where third party liability is more common The reason they do not waive the right for subrogation is the carrier may seek subrogation/malpractice against the defense firm that they hired to defend the claim. The carrier may also seek subrogation against their insured if said insured remained passive regarding the malicious act or Error&omission that has been committed, not against the claimant. See example of hyperlinked of a carrier seeking damages against it's own carrier's own defense firm,for legal malpractice regarding a E&O claim, not against the claimant of the insured law firm. https:/Iderreverel aw.com/how-subrogation-empowers-insurers-against-I a gal-mal practice/ Everest is a A+Superior(AM Best)the highest rating given for Lawyers E&O insurance and admitted in the State of California.
