Bad Faith Insurance Lawyers – King of Prussia, Norristown, and Chester County
The majority of insurance claims are honored by the insurance companies. Though compensation may not come immediately, most insurers practice due diligence when evaluating claims and paying compensation. Unfortunately, insurers do, on occasion, act in bad faith and deny fair or rightful compensation. Sometimes insurance companies use stalling tactics and refuse to correspond with the policyholder in a courteous, timely, and efficient manner. Some egregiously use outright fraud to withhold rightful compensation. Laws have been established to protect policyholders' rights to compensation and force insurers to pay the benefits due. If you think benefits you've paid for are being withheld by an insurance company committing bad faith, please contact our insurance lawyers to get action on your claim.
For residents of Chester County and nearby areas, including Norristown and King of Prussia, the attorneys of The Mayerson Law Offices P.C., a nationally recognized firm, have provided answers to questions about insurance and insurance companies. To get detailed answers to specific questions about your insurance claim, please schedule a consultation with one of our expert insurance lawyers.
Types of Insurance Company Bad Faith
Our insurance lawyers recognize that insurance companies can act in bad faith in numerous ways. The most common way in which insurers do so is by refusing to compensate a policyholder for a valid claim; the policyholder is left without the financial means to pay for hospital and medical bills, car repair bills, and other expenses after a traumatic event.
Insurance companies can commit bad faith in other ways as well:
Failure to pay compensation previously agreed upon
Sometimes, insurance companies will simply fail to make a payment that they had previously agreed to pay.
Failure to inform a policyholder of the reasons for denial of a claim
Even when an insurance company denies a claim on entirely valid grounds, it may not notify the policyholder of the reason(s).
Failure to investigate the claim in reasonable time
Some insurers may deliberately take an unreasonable amount of time to investigate and respond to claims to put off making potentially large payouts.
Failure to inform the policyholder of the progress of the investigation of the claim
Sometimes, an insurer may provide inaccurate or incomplete information regarding the progress of the claim.
Employing fraudulent policies and practices
In cases such as Health Insurance Company, promises made by the insurance representatives are not kept, and consumers are forced to suffer the consequences of fraudulent practices.
