[ Insurance Law & Bad Faith Claims in Rolla, MO ]
Insurance law and bad faith claims
Filing an insurance claim after experiencing a personal injury can feel overwhelming. Dealing with an insurance company that delays or denies your claim may add even more stress to an already difficult situation.
Under most insurance policies, insurers must provide coverage and defend policyholders against claims when they are liable for damages. If your claim has been denied, your insurer fails to defend you, or you are uncertain about your rights under your policy, understanding your legal options is essential. Our attorneys provide guidance, represent clients’ interests, and advocate on their behalf in disputes with insurance companies.
Insurance is meant to protect against loss, injury, or unexpected events. However, most individuals do not frequently interact with insurance providers and may assume their policy will fully cover them when needed. Unfortunately, this is not always the case, as insurers may attempt to deny or minimize claims.
Insurance companies are required to act in good faith and deal fairly with policyholders. If an insurer unreasonably refuses to pay benefits owed under the terms of a policy, you may have legal options to pursue a claim.
