Policy-holders often feel helpless when their insurance company acts in bad faith. Insurance companies are only needed when it is very important, such as recovering from a car wreck, from storm damage, or injury. Policy-holders pay monthly premiums in good faith,” so it is expected that the insurance company behave “in good faith” in return; however, this is not always the case.
If it is proved that an insurer is withholding or denying coverage for petty or made-up reasons, a bad faith insurance claim may be viewed favorably. We never promise an outcome.
