It pays to ask "Y" ;)
From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Eric Baumes Sent: Tuesday, November 06, 2012 2:42 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Re: Stus-List Need Legal advice please In a storm here a couple years ago boat A broke loose and hit boat B. Boat B tried to collect from Boat A's insurance (X). Boat A's insurance X said "Act of God" and did not pay. Boat B's insurance (Y) paid for the damages (less deductible). Boat B sued Boat A to get deductible back. Boat B lost. In the same storm Boat C broke loose and hit Boat D (me). Both were insured by the same company (Y). Company Y paid for both. My damage was paid by my policy (with no deductible) and was not registered as a claim by me. Company Y said it could not sue itself. If Boat B did not have insurance he would have been out of luck all together. I hope you have better luck than Boat B.

Your company will naturally NOT want to pay the claim, so their lawyers will be after the clam boat or whatever hit you at their expense. My insurance is about $550/year, so it seems well worth it.
