Insurance Bad Faith
Insurance policies are unique contracts whereby performance on the part of the Insured is simply a promise to either reimburse for a pre-defined loss or pay some portion of costs associated with a damaging event. The filing of a claim is a demand that the promise be fulfilled. Unfortunately, legitimate claims sometimes get denied on inadequate grounds thereby leaving the promise unfulfilled.
This area of contracts tends to be more heavily regulated by state and/or federal law depending on subject matter and method of policy administration. The regulations are designed to protect consumers and businesses that may lack the ability to negotiate terms with their Insurer and to promote general economic stability through reliable payouts. The Law Office of Benjamin B. Robertson can help clients navigate those regulations and formulate a strategy that leverages such guidelines to achieve policy enforcement.
In addition to administrative avenues, the law affords compensation when an Insurer has acted in Bad Faith towards the Insured.
The Law Office of Benjamin B. Robertson can assist with claim filing, administrative appeals, negotiations, arbitration, and court proceedings to achieve fair results for clients in troubling circumstances.
