Were you or someone you love injured due to someone else’s or another entity’s negligence? If you were, the negligent party or the insurance provider that represents them could be liable for your subsequent expenses and losses. These can include ongoing medical bills, injury-based income loss, and physical and emotional pain and suffering. The insurer is not likely to hand over compensation without lengthy negotiations.
At Bogin, Munns & Munns, our Melbourne insurance litigation lawyer will help you get the financial compensation you are entitled to. Whether you are entitled to compensation from a third-party insurer or your own, we will build a comprehensive evidence file that proves the cause and the costs of your monetary damages. We will also help you fight back against bad faith insurance practices that might limit your financial recovery.
What Constitutes Bad Faith Insurance Practices in Florida
When it comes to compensating a victim injured by their clients, insurance companies are typically more interested in their own bottom line than in your best interest. In some instances, this can lead to bad faith practices that put your right to fair and appropriate compensation in jeopardy.
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. Even your own insurer might use these practices to limit or deny coverage your policy actually entitles you to. Our law firm will help you fight back.
Our Lawyers Ensure Proper Timing of Your Case
Filing an insurance claim or lawsuit involves many different types of notifications and filing deadlines. On your own, they can be difficult to keep up with. When we represent you, we make sure you are aware of the relevant time constraints. We also make sure your case complies with them.
These can include:
- Florida Statutes § 95.11(3)(a) — the personal injury statute of limitations, which is generally four years
- Florida Statutes § 95.11(4)(d) — the wrongful death statute of limitations, which is generally two years
- Florida Statutes § 316.066 — the requirement to file a car accident report in the state
- Florida Statutes § 627.70132 — the requirement to file a homeowners’ insurance claim within two years
Many other laws will govern your potential case, including personal injury and insurance laws. These will determine the types of damages you can request and how long the relevant insurance company has to respond to your case and take other actions.
We Will Help You File a Claim With Florida’s Department of Insurance
One of the primary benefits of hiring our law firm is the ability to leave the complexities of dealing with the insurance company to us. We will explain every step of your case to you along the way, but we will handle the big and small details for you.
