When an insurance company…

  • refuses to pay a claim, or
  • delays the payment of a claim for no apparent reason, or
  • when they fail to uphold their end of your insurance policy

…it is referred to as ‘insurance bad faith’. Essentially, every insurance policy is a contract between you and an insurance company. Your obligation is to pay the premium, while the insurance company is supposed to pay for the claim if it is covered by the policy. When an insurance company fails to uphold their end of the deal, you’re dealing with bad faith.

Some of the most common forms of insurance bad faith include:

  • Unreasonably attempting to lowball the payment of an insurance claim
  • Failing to investigate a claim adequately
  • Failing to reasonably interpret the language of an insurance policy
  • Unreasonably denying your insurance claim
  • Unreasonably insisting that you are healthy enough to work

An insurance policy is a very special contract between an individual and an insurance company. As a result of this special form of contract, the law imposes an obligation on insurance companies – that they must have good faith toward and deal fairly with policyholders. This means that language in the insurance policy must be interpreted in favor of the policyholder, among other rules.
