INSURANCE BAD FAITH

Ask yourself the following questions:

• Have you filed a claim with your insurance company but you are getting the run-around?
• Is your insurance company paying you less than it owes?
• Has your insurance company denied your claim?
• Is your insurance company not treating you properly?
• Is your insurance company taking too long to pay your claim?

If you answered "yes" to any of these questions you may have a claim for BAD FAITH and BREACH OF CONTRACT against your insurance company. As a former insurance adjuster, Doug Meier has special insight into insurance bad faith and breach of contract claims and he may be able to help you.

An insurance policy is a contract. You pay a premium and in exchange the insurance company agrees to pay you when you have a valid claim. A person pays for insurance in order obtain security and protection. If your insurance company fails to pay or pays too little you may have a claim for BREACH OF CONTRACT against your insurance company.

In addition, your insurance company owes you a "duty of good faith and fair dealing." If your insurance company does not conduct itself in good faith and if it deals unfairly with you, you may have a claim for BAD FAITH against it. The following conduct by your insurance company are some examples of conduct that may be evidence of bad faith:

• Failure to promptly respond to you concerning your claim.
• Failure to conduct a reasonable investigation concerning your claim.
• Failure to affirm or deny coverage within a reasonable period of time.
• Not attempting in good faith to effectuate a prompt, fair and equitable settlement.

These examples are simply illustrative and other conduct by your insurance company may also constitute bad faith. Each case is different. If you believe your insurance company has committed bad faith call MEIER & GIOVANINI for a free confidential telephone consultation.
