What Constitutes Bad Faith?
Any insurance company can commit an act of bad faith, including providers of auto insurance, homeowners' insurance and life insurance. Regardless of who committed the act, it is illegal.
Insurance bad faith actions can include:You don't have to face this battle alone.
- Failing to investigate a claim in a timely matter
- Intentionally delaying or withholding due payment
- Unjustly denying benefits on a valid insurance claim
- Refusing to settle a case
- Failing to reimburse you for your entire loss
- Using unreasonable interpretations of policy language
Securing the Benefits You Deserve
Insurance companies always look for reasons to deny your claim or pay out less than you deserve. Remember, they are a business whose primary objective is to make money. Every claim submitted threatens this objective.
To successfully resolve an insurance dispute, our attorneys will have to prepare and present a compelling case. Although each case is prepared as if it will go to trial, we do pursue negotiation or mediation when possible.
