Insurance Bad Faith Law
Denver, Colorado Insurance Lawyers
Just because you have an insurance policy doesn’t mean you will be paid what you deserve. Bad faith insurance practices can take many different forms, including:
- Failing to pay a claim for a covered loss
- Underpaying a claim for a covered loss
- Denying a legitimate claim
- Errors and omissions on the part of brokers or agents that impact the policyholder’s ability to collect
- Negligent, bad faith or fraudulent practices with respect to insurance policies and insurance coverage.
If an insurance company is found liable for bad faith, it may be held accountable for your economic losses, including lost wages, interest on money you borrowed to cover expenses while insurance benefits were wrongfully withheld, and loss due to damaged credit. In certain circumstances you may be entitled to recover your attorneys fees. You may also be entitled to a settlement for emotional distress caused by the bad faith failure to pay a claim.
But going up against a big insurance company can be intimidating without the help of an experienced lawyer. Insurance language, provisions, terminology, principles and law are quite complex, and insurance documents are usually written so that the fine print is barely decipherable. Insurance practices often include interpretations that favor the insurance company and the broker and agent over the policyholder.
