Insurance Bad Faith

Los Angeles Insurance Law Attorney

Insurance policyholders trust insurance companies to make good on policy terms after an event such as an auto accident, a healthcare event (surgery or a stroke), a house burglary or fire, or death of an insured family member.

If an insurer is failing to provide promised coverage in a timely manner, schedule a consultation with an experienced insurance bad faith lawyer at Lederer & Nojima LLP.

First Step: Evaluate the Insurance Policy

The first step in resolving an insurance coverage dispute is to conduct an in-depth evaluation of the policy in question. What other situations in similar circumstances have been comparable to the claim that the policyholder is making? What precedents have been set when others made similar claims, regarding accidents, property-damaging events, health care needs, or even death?

Overcoming Hesitation to Go Up Against an Insurance Company

Insurance litigation lawyers of Lederer & Nojima LLP find that many people are hesitant to challenge an insurance company when claims are denied, disputed, or unreasonably delayed. Perhaps a death in the family has made conflict with an insurance company seem like too much to deal with. Despite the seemingly overwhelming nature of the event, one should not simply put the matter aside and fail to take action.

Insurance Law: Time is of the Essence when Making a Claim

In many cases, the clock is ticking. Fast action is important. The passage of time will likely weaken a person's or business's case when requesting that an insurer make good on an insurance policy after a flood, fire, hurricane, earthquake, or any accident, has damaged a home or business property, or taken the life of a loved one. Statutes of limitations, filing deadlines, and deterioration of evidence regarding loss make satisfactory benefit payouts more difficult to obtain as time goes on.
