The Duty of Fair Dealing

The relationship between an individual or business and an insurance company is tricky. The policyholder pays in to the insurance company to be insured — to be financially compensated if events or damages occur that are covered by the policy. But the insurance company — like every other company — loses money when it gives money to someone, so it has tremendous incentive to deny its policyholders’ claims. There is a conflict of interest built into the system.

When does a denial of a policy become bad faith?

Of course, an insurance company cannot be expected to pay its policyholders for any possible unfortunate circumstance. Only the events that are covered in a given policy will be considered. There are further limitations even within those covered losses. Many claim denials, even wrongful denials, do not rise to the level of bad faith. Those require more willful malicious intent on the part of the insurance company.

It takes more than a simple denial of your claim for an insurance bad faith claim. Call us. We can listen to your story and help determine whether you have a bad faith claim, or at least a wrongful denial claim.
