Bad Faith Litigation

Insurance companies can be found to be engaging in unfair practices if they:

• Distort relevant facts about a claimant’s policy or coverage
• Do not acknowledge communications related to claims in a timely fashion
• Do not adopt reasonable standards for timely investigation and settlement of claims
• Do not attempt to reach a fair settlement
• Unreasonably delay the payment of a claim

The definition of reasonable or unreasonable behavior varies from case to case, which is reason enough to request a free consult with CO Injury Law. We understand how to work within the parameters of the law to help you receive compensation when the insurance company has prolonged your case or refuses to pay.

If an insurance company is found to be acting in bad faith, they can be found liable for the benefits specified in the insurance policy as well as up to three times that amount. The company can also be required to pay reasonable attorney’s fees and costs.
