Boston Insurance Claims

When you submit a claim to your insurance company, you do it hoping that the company will act in good faith, honoring the validity of your claim. Many insurance companies do that. Too often though, other insurers will deny a seemingly valid claim without providing a clear explanation.

Insurance companies generate a greater profit when policyholders do not file claims or fail to collect on those submitted under their policies. Some insurance companies habitually deny claims—regardless of their legitimacy—and will only investigate a claim if the policyholder takes legal action.

At Morgan & Morgan, our insurance dispute attorneys have extensive experience helping clients recover the compensation to which they are entitled. If you are in a dispute with your insurance company—or have a claim that was denied or undervalued—contact the insurance dispute attorneys at Morgan & Morgan’s Boston office for a free consultation.

    The Concept of Bad Faith

    If you’re looking to settle a denied insurance claim in your favor, it’s important to know the ways that insurers will act in bad faith. Some notable ways insurers will do so include:

    • Ignoring claims or other communications for policyholders
    • Denying claims without conducting an investigation
    • Misrepresenting the coverage the insured’s policy provides
    • Failing to provide a basis for claims denial
    • Failing to promptly inform the insured that additional information is needed to adjust a claim
    • Denying a claim or failing to promptly adjust a claim without a valid reason

    Some insurance companies will do everything in their ability to deny you coverage, even for minor charges. After years of faithful payments, companies might reject the needs of their customers over something trivial.

    Your Protections Provided by the State

    The state of Massachusetts provides individuals with rights protecting them from bad faith actions, thanks to Chapter 93A of its legislature, which regulates business practices for the protection of consumers. If your insurance company acted in bad faith with your claim, it may be a violation of the law. Determining bad faith can be difficult. A knowledgeable attorney can help wade through and understand the rights provided by the state and the federal government while also maximizing your chance to get the compensation you need.
