If Your Insurance Claim Is Denied
When you suffer a loss, you may not receive the insurance coverage you thought you were entitled to. Or you may believe the settlement or compensation the company offers you is inadequate.
Do you know your rights in this situation? Many consumers do not. An insurance policy is a contract which is open to interpretation by the courts. If a policyholder does not receive payment for a legally-obligated claim, he or she may be able to sue for insurance bad faith.
You may bring an insurance bad faith claim against your auto, homeowners, professional, medical, personal or life insurance company.
We Can Help You Understand Your Rights
Before you accept a settlement in any situation, you need to think about the estimated short- and long-term damages. Will the settlement cover these losses? It is important to remember that you do not have to close your case immediately or accept the insurance company's initial offer. You have the right to consult an attorney about your options first.
Insurance companies have lawyers working to protect their interests. You need an experienced attorney on your side, too.
