If you have been wrongfully denied an insurance claim or offered only a reduced amount of compensation for your injuries contact us immediately before the insurance company concludes your case can be resolved for a ridiculously small amount.
The California Insurance Code
Insurance companies in the state of California are governed by strict state laws in the handling of insurance claims. California Insurance Code Section 790.03 recites the standards that must be followed by insurance companies. Failure to comply with these standards will subject an insurance company to an insurance bad faith claim and punitive damages. Among the violations which are prohibited are:
Misrepresenting to claimants the pertinent facts or insurance policy provisions relating to any coverage at issue.
Failing to acknowledge and act reasonably promptly upon communications with respect to claims arising under insurance policies.
Failing to adopt and implement reasonable standards for the prompt investigation and processing of claims arising under insurance policies.
Failing to affirm or deny coverage of claims within a reasonable time after proof of loss requirements have been completed and submitted by the insured.
Not attempting in good faith to effectuate prompt, fair, and equitable settlements of claims in which liability has become reasonably clear.
Attempting to settle a claim by an insured for less than the amount to which a reasonable man would have believed he was entitled by reference to written or printed advertising material accompanying or made part of an application.
Failing, after payment of a claim, to inform insured or beneficiaries, upon request by them, of the coverage under which payment has been made.
Making known to insured or claimants a practice of the insurer of appealing from arbitration awards in favor of insured or claimants for the purpose of compelling them to accept settlements or compromises less than the amount awarded in arbitration.
Failing to settle claims promptly, where liability has become apparent, under one portion of the insurance policy coverage in order to influence settlements under other portions of the insurance policy coverage.
Directly advising a claimant not to obtain the services of an attorney.
Misleading a claimant as to the applicable statute of limitations.
Has your automobile insurance company denied or delayed payment of a claim following an accident in California involving your vehicle?
Has a disability or life insurance company failed or refused to pay a claim for disability or lost income, or following the death of a named insured?
Prime Examples of Insurance Bad Faith
A complete denial of insurance benefits due under a policy;
An unreasonable delay in the payment of benefits due;
An unreasonably low offer to compensate you for your damages;
Non-disclosure of policy benefits to you, the insured;
A failure to promptly investigate or failure to properly investigate a claim.
If actions such as these have occurred, call us to evaluate your situation and the actions of the insurance company involved.
