Insurance Law
Pennsylvania Personal Injury Lawyer
Plaintiff and Defense Representation
The Law Office of Creedon & Feliciani, P.C. represents plaintiffs and defendants in matters involving insurance law, such as bad faith claims and insurance coverage issues.
Bad Faith Claims
Insurance companies underwrite insurance policies, which are legally binding contracts between the insured and the company. Acting in “good faith” means, among other things, honoring the contract and providing benefits as promised within the terms of the policy. In the insurance industry, under certain conditions, when the contract is breached and benefits are withheld, this activity is termed acting in “bad faith.” Bad faith claims may be brought against the insurance company by claimants to receive benefits.
The following activities may provide grounds for bad faith claims:
- Deliberate payment delay
- Unreasonable denial of claim benefits
- Inadequate investigation of a claim
- Delayed investigation of a claim
- Refusal to settle a case
- Failure to reimburse a loss in its entirety
- Arbitrary interpretations of insurance policy
