Insurance Claim
What Is a Bad Faith Insurance Lawyer?
If you believe your insurance provider unreasonably denied your life, health, disability, or home insurance claim, then you should speak with a California insurance bad-faith lawyer. Since each case is different, working with an insurance bad faith attorney is important to best understand your legal options against your insurance provider.
If your insurance company unreasonably denied the payment of a legitimate claim, delayed payment, failed to thoroughly investigate a claim, misinterpreted your policy or underpaid a claim without a valid reason, it acted in bad faith.
California Insurance Bad Faith
Insurance bad faith in California generally involves insurance companies who engage in deceptive, unfair or unreasonable business practices. If you have faithfully paid your insurance premiums, you have every right to expect that your insurance company will be there for you when you file a legitimate claim.
Unfortunately, many policyholders find that when they most desperately need their insurance benefits — such as suffering a disability, mourning the loss of a loved one, dealing with damage to their homes and in other serious situations — the companies refuse to pay just and adequate compensation. This is when you need skilled bad faith insurance claim lawyers by your side.
What Are Examples of Insurance Bad Faith in California?
You could contact our Sherman Oaks bad faith insurance claim lawyers if you have questions about your claim. We help individuals throughout the Bay Area. So, if you are in Bakersfield, Lancaster, or in Downey, give us a call. Possible examples of insurance bad faith in California may include:
- Your insurer engages in deceptive business practices, such as by misrepresenting the terms of your policy.
- Your insurance company fails to respond to your valid insurance claim.
- Your insurance provider fails to provide sufficient reason for denying a claim.
- Your insurance company fails to investigate your claim in a timely manner.
California's Bad Faith Insurance Attorneys
If a court decides that an insurance company acted in bad faith, the insurer is responsible for a wide range of damages, including compensation for mental anguish and costs associated with legal representation. Insurance firms will frequently argue that they committed an honest mistake when defending themselves against allegations of bad faith. They do this in the belief that the mistake will persuade the jury or the court that the behavior was not unreasonable. Alternately, they could argue that they reached a resolution that was reasonable in regards to a real disagreement.
Because we can anticipate the arguments insurance companies make, we know how to build strong cases against them. We know how insurance companies operate. We know the excuses they make. More importantly, we know how to expose their unethical behavior.
What Should I Do if My Insurer Has Acted in Bad Faith?
If your insurance company acted in bad faith, you should:
- Send a letter to the insurance adjuster and company president
- Document and save any correspondence with the insurer
- Keep track of who you speak with as well as the date and time of all conversations
- Contact our Sherman Oaks bad faith insurance claim lawyers
While it is helpful for you to learn about California insurance laws, the rules regarding these matters are complex. Having an experienced professional on your side can make a significant difference in the outcome of your situation.
