Denied Disability Benefits?

Insurance Law / Bad Faith

Claim Denials Reach Epic Proportions

High-powered HMOs and insurance companies are increasingly refusing to honor their obligations to their policyholders. Armed with a battery of legal and forensic experts and extensive resources used to investigate and litigate personal injury and wrongful death claims, insurance companies and corporations want to limit their exposure or liability when a serious injury or death occurs. Desire for even larger profit margins can trump concern for the policyholder. Without the aggressive representation of a skilled and knowledgeable insurance lawyer, you cannot win this "David and Goliath" matchup. Our San Francisco insurance attorneys have spent many years fighting for policyholders and know the tactics and defenses insurance companies and HMOs use to try and deny and reject claims.

Bad faith claims

Besides traditional insurance coverage claims and disputes, our insurance attorneys also emphasize bad faith litigation in our insurance law practice. In an effort to deter unconscionable and unfair insurance claims practices, the State of California imposes a duty on insurance companies to deal fairly and in good faith with policyholders. Our insurance law bad faith attorneys are experienced in this complicated and constantly developing area of the law, and aggressively prosecute lawsuits against insurance companies who act unfairly and in bad faith toward their policyholders. If your insurance company unreasonably refuses to promptly, thoroughly and fairly investigate and pay your claim, we can help you to not only get your claim paid, but to get compensation for the financial losses, personal suffering and emotional harm caused by the insurance companies wrongful conduct.
