Were you or a loved one injured due to someone’s negligence? If you were, the negligent party or the insurance provider representing them could be liable for your expenses and non-economic losses. A Melbourne litigation and trial lawyer will seek compensation for medical bills, injury-based income loss, and physical and emotional pain and suffering.
Whether you are entitled to compensation from a third-party insurer or your own, we will work to prove the insurer’s financial liability. We will also help you fight back against bad faith insurance practices that could otherwise limit your financial recovery. A Melbourne insurance litigation lawyer from Bogin, Munns & Munns will fight for you to receive the financial compensation you are entitled to.
What Are Bad Faith Insurance Practices in Florida?
When faced with compensating a victim injured by their clients, insurance companies are typically more interested in their bottom line than your best interest. In some instances, financial motivations can lead to bad faith practices that jeopardize your right to fair compensation.
Some examples of bad faith insurance practices we protect you from include:
- Ignoring or delaying your claim
- Failing to communicate with you
- Unfairly denying your valid claim
- Misrepresenting coverage limits
- Failing to explain the basis of denial
- Failing to request information promptly
Bad faith insurance practices are not limited to third-party carriers. After suffering injuries or property damage or loss, the last thing you want to deal with is an insurance company that disputes or otherwise questions your request for damages. This can occur with both auto and homeowners’ insurance.
Florida Statutes § 624.155 defines bad faith insurance practices. Our law firm will help you fight back against any bad faith tactics, as you’ve paid your insurance premiums and deserve fair compensation for losses.
