Many employees travel for their job. What happens when you pay benefits in the claimant’s home State, but the third-party action is in the defendant’s home State? What statute applies? How can you ensure you are still getting your maximum recovery? In this episode, "Out-of-State Accidents: Choice of Law, Federal Cases, and Harmonizing Subrogation Statutes (https://loisllc.com/webinar/out-of-state-accidents-choice-of-law-federal-cases-and-harmonizing-subrogation-statutes/)," Christopher Major (https://loisllc.com/attorney/christopher-major/), Civil Practice Team Leader at Lois Law Firm, discusses how to navigate multijurisdictional claims, how to monitor or intervene in a federal case, and how to blend statutes to ensure you receive your maximum reimbursement.

Major discusses the following:

The choice of law doctrine in New York and New Jersey. When to expect a federal action and how to find it on PACER. The availability of remedies such as loss transfer for out-of-State accidents or foreign workers’ compensation claims. How to use basic rights of contract to “pick and choose” the most favorable reimbursement scheme.
