Insurance Bad Faith
Insurance companies provide an essential service to drivers, homeowners, and property owners in general. Though it can be expensive, insurance saves people money in the long term. In exchange for paying insurance premiums, insurance holders expect coverage in times of need.
Unfortunately, some insurance companies act in bad faith. If you are part of a group whose insurance company has acted in bad faith, contact the class action lawsuit lawyers of Feazell & Tighe, LLP, today at 877-508-0588 to learn more about your legal rights and options.
Understanding Insurance Bad Faith
When an insurance policyholder makes a legitimate insurance claim, his or her insurance company is expected to evaluate the situation and compensate the individual according to that policyholder’s contract. Unfortunately, this does not always happen, and insurance companies may make decisions in order to protect their own finances rather than helping their clients.
Insurance companies act in bad faith when they:
- Under-compensate policyholders
- Reject legitimate claims without reason
- Do not order proper inspections of damaged property
- Delay compensation
- Cancel an individual’s policy altogether without good reason
Policyholders whose insurance companies act in bad faith may be able to sue their insurers for the compensation they deserve. When the problem extends beyond one individual, an individual may want to launch a class action lawsuit against the company.
