Alon Barda Wins Priority Dispute

Alon Barda was recently successful in a priority dispute arbitration. The decision in Aviva v. State Farm, Commonwell, and Chubb was rendered by Arbitrator Bialkowski.

The decision addresses a number of issues, including whether the claimant was an “occupant” of her mother’s vehicle, whether the claimant was financially dependent on her mother and her mother’s spouse, whether the claimant’s step-father had regular use of his employer’s vehicle at the time of the accident, and the “choice of insurer” provisions of the Insurance Act.

Congratulations to Alon on this result!
