Insurance Disputes

Insurance Companies

We entrust our future and security in our insurance company.  After an auto accident, natural disaster, or medical emergency, we expect our insurance companies to act in good faith when dealing with our insurance needs.  When someone suffers a serious loss, the reasonable expectation is that the insurance company will fairly assess the loss and pay the claim quickly.  However, this is not always the case.  Insurance companies frequently play hardball with their claimants by knowingly refusing to pay legitimate claims or requiring unnecessary delays.  Denied and delayed insurance claims are a breach of contract by your insurance company and they cost you money. 

Insurance Policy

When you purchase an insurance policy, it is assumed that your claim will be honored in the event that something happens.  But when you go to file a claim, you find this is not the case.  It is not unusual for an insurance company to limit or even deny coverage of a claim without proper justification or warning.  If your insurance company has purposely refused to process your insurance claim, you may have a bad-faith claim.  Insurance companies are required by law to treat their policyholders fairly and this includes payment of claims.  Bad faith insurance law has come about because insurance companies are known for mistreating their clients and refusing to pay for legitimate claims.
