What are bad faith insurance practices?
All insurance companies have a duty to treat their policyholders in good faith and deal with them fairly. However, some insurance companies would rather not pay claims at all or pay as little as possible in order to increase their profits. Its a common theme throughout the insurance industry as a whole. However, when insurance companies do not treat their policyholders fairly, those policyholders can fight back by contacting their states Insurance Department and an attorney with experience in bad faith insurance litigation. Unfortunately, bad faith insurance practices arent limited to workers compensation issues; they can occur in any insurance setting including disability, long term care, health care, homeowners and many more.
