Wrongful Denial of Insurance Claims
Wrongful Denial of Insurance Claims - The Todd Smith Law Firm
Wrongful denial of insurance benefits can give rise
to a claim for damages. These claims are basically a breach of the
insurance contract, when insurers use non-legitimate reasons to
deny claims.
Insurers have a duty to the insured to examine claims
in good faith and use fair dealing when evaluating claims. To act
in bad faith requires the insurer to engage in unfair dealing not
just make a mistake.
Most lawsuits involve action against an insured's own insurance company, and arise in situations where the insurance company unfairly and without proper cause, fails to compensate the insured for a loss covered by the policy, or unreasonably delays making payments due under the policy.
