The situation
An insurer’s policyholder was involved in a collision with a vehicle connected to a Saskatchewan ranching operation. Recovery required a claim in Saskatchewan against the ranch company and an individual driver.
Our approach
Before filing, Precision Paralegal Services ran a Saskatchewan corporate search to confirm the ranch company’s legal status. We filed a Saskatchewan civil claim and prepared and served summonses on the corporate defendant and the individual driver.
We corresponded with the Saskatchewan insurer’s claims office during the matter, including a formal letter addressing the claim.
After a negotiated settlement was reached, we prepared and finalized a release for the insured to sign and confirmed receipt of the settlement cheque and signed release.
The outcome
The negotiated settlement was paid in full, with a signed release completing the recovery.
What this case illustrates
This matter required attention to the jurisdiction where the claim would proceed and the identity of both defendants. The Saskatchewan corporate search and local court process formed part of the work leading to a paid settlement.
