Get the money back. Skip the guesswork.

Every file, six simple steps

Each guide on Subrobuddy follows the same path, so you always know where you are.

  1. Identify

    Figure out what caused the loss and who may be responsible.

  2. Notify

    Send notice to every party who may be responsible.

  3. Investigate

    Gather photos, reports, and expert findings.

  4. Subrogate

    Send the demand once the claim is paid.

  5. Negotiate

    Work toward a fair number with the other side.

  6. Settle

    Review the release, collect, and close the file.

Drafting tips that save you headaches

Small habits that keep your letters clean and your files moving.

Facts on paper, fault on the phone

Letters stick to what happened. Save the "who's to blame" talk for a call.

Say "responsible," not "negligent"

It keeps the tone calm and gets more people to respond.

Give 9 business days

That's a fair window for replies to a scene or lab exam invitation.

Notice letters don't mention payment

At notice, usually nothing has been paid yet, so leave it out.

Your next file just got easier.

Grab a letter, follow the steps, and get the money back.
