Insurance Disputes

Insurance. You expect your policies to be your safety net if you suffer an injury or accident. That’s not always the case. Sometimes an insurance company fails to live up to its side of the contract, denying a valid claim and possibly acting in bad faith.

Few events in life are more frustrating and alarming than having a health insurance claim denied. The language used in insurance policies can be cryptic, and reasons given for claim denials may seem to disregard the realities of the situation.

Cutting Through Insurance Coverage Confusion

Dealing assertively with insurance companies is essential for lawyers to capably represent personal injury sufferers and the families of wrongful death victims.

Why Are Insurance Claims Denied?

Denied insurance claim

Reading through insurance claim denial.

Claims are most often denied by insurance companies because they want to save money at your expense. They are for-profit companies, after all.

Bottom line, insurance policies are contracts and insurance companies may refuse to pay a claim. Sometimes the reason is valid. Sometimes it is based on a technicality or loophole or the company may be guilty of insurance bad faith.

Hiring an attorney who knows insurance law and has a history of standing up for individual rights against large corporations is your best resource. At the Nash & Franciskato Law Firm, we believe private citizens deserve quality counsel that holds insurers accountable to their clients.

FAQ

What is bad faith?
Q
A

Bad faith is a term commonly used in the law of contracts and other commercial dealings. Simply put it refers to a person or entity who intentionally tries to deceive or mislead another in order to gain some advantage. When the rights of someone else are intentionally or maliciously infringed upon, that conduct demonstrates bad faith.

In the case of insurance policies, an insurance company has a contractual agreement to provide you coverage. If this coverage is denied or unreasonably delayed, they are acting in bad faith.
