If you or a loved one received a denial of your benefits claim that you feel was unreasonable, it is possible that the insurance company acted in bad faith. Insurance carriers must uphold a standard of good faith and fair dealing when handling any claim made by their policy holders. If they broke this standard, you might be entitled to receive your benefits and additional compensation through an insurance bad faith lawsuit.
At Donahue & Horrow, L.L.P., our Irvine insurance bad faith attorneys have more than four decades of combined experience representing clients through a wide range of insurance disputes. When attempting to resolve a dispute with your insurance company, it is important to seek the counsel of an experienced lawyer. These types of cases can be complex and frustrating.
Insurance Bad Faith Lawyer in Irvine
Every insurance policy in California carries an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The insurance company must perform several duties when handling benefits claims, including to:
- Promptly investigate the insured's claim
- Timely respond to the insured's inquiries and otherwise communicate with the insured
- Contact and speak with the insured's treating physicians
When these, or other, acts of good faith are not upheld, it is important to hold your insurance company responsible for its actions. Contact our firm to discuss your case through a free consultation.
