Los Angeles Insurance Policy Rescission Attorneys
You made an insurance claim, expecting the process to go smoothly and ultimately result in your claim being paid. To your surprise, the insurance company responded by canceling your insurance policy. Not only did they avoid paying your current claim, but any future claim you might have. This scenario happens all the time. You may be asking the question, can they really do that? They certainly can try, but the lawyers at Donahue & Horrow, L.L.P., will do everything in our power not only to prevent your policy from being canceled, but to make certain that your current insurance claim is appropriately paid.
How Insurance Policy Rescission Works
What the insurance company is doing is referred to as rescission or post-claims underwriting. Essentially, this is a retroactive cancellation of your policy. They are claiming that your policy was not valid because of some type of misrepresentation you allegedly made at the time you purchased your policy. Of course, this alleged representation did not stop them from accepting your payments for as long as you have had the policy. They are only making these allegations now that you are asking them to fulfill their side of the agreement.
Our lawyers will fight this underhanded tactic. Perhaps the insurance company has rescinded your disability insurance policy because of an alleged pre-existing condition that you did not mention at the time you purchased the policy. We know all about these tactics, because our law firm features former insurance defense lawyers. We have more than 40 years of experience in insurance law, and we use that experience to benefit people facing rescission in the Los Angeles area and throughout California.
