[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]... I'm out of my depth when it comes to insurance law, but it seems like GEICO's problem here is that it didn't intervene at the proper time and instead waited until after an arbitrator had already determined the insured person to be negligent. There might have been a different outcome if it had done that, but it didn't.[/quote] The funny thing about this case, from a legal standpoint, is that insurance companies commonly force plaintiffs to enter arbitration in random places and with arbitrators of the insurance company's choosing, and the insurance companies regularly win when plaintiffs try to appeal paltry arbitration awards because the arbitration is binding. The appeals court likely was thrilled to use Geico's own prior decisions against them.[/quote]
