SUBROGATE Meaning and
Definition
-
Subrogate is a legal term referring to the act of substituting one person or entity for another in asserting a right, claim, or demand. It involves transferring the rights or duties of one party to another, typically arising out of a legal relationship or contract.
When subrogation occurs, the party that takes over the rights or claims of another is called the subrogee, whereas the party whose rights or claims are transferred is known as the subrogor. This process is often initiated to facilitate the enforcement of legal rights and prevent unjust enrichment.
In practice, subrogation frequently arises in insurance claim scenarios. For example, if an insurance company compensates a policyholder for damages caused by a third party, it may then seek to subrogate the policyholder's rights to pursue a claim against the responsible party. By subrogating, the insurer effectively steps into the policyholder's position, allowing it to pursue legal action to recover the amount it paid.
The subrogation process can also occur in other areas of law, such as property law and surety bonds. Regardless of the context, subrogation essentially enables one party to assert the rights and remedies that rightfully belong to another, often in order to seek compensation or mitigate losses.

Etymology of SUBROGATE
The word "subrogate" comes from the Latin verb "subrogare", which is a combination of "sub" (meaning "under" or "in place of") and "rogare" (meaning "to ask" or "to request"). In Latin, "subrogare" meant "to substitute" or "to put in place of". Over time, this term was adopted into English legal terminology to refer to the act of assigning one person or entity's right to another person or entity.
