Has Your Texas Homeowner or Commercial Business Property Insurance Claim Been Wrongfully Denied?

Posted by Cedrick Forrest | Jan 24, 2023 | 0 Comments

Have you filed your insurance claim correctly and faithfully paid your premiums on time, but are now your insurance company has denied you a fair settlement as promised? Do you believe your insurance company denied your claim for invalid, unlawful, or fraudulent reasons? Forrest Law helps those that have been wronged by their insurance company by making them follow the law and fairly adjust insurance claims.

All too often an insurance company is more concerned with profitability than customer care. Insurance companies have very clever ways to adjust insurance claims for the benefit of the company.

Some tactics to ensure paying claimants less money are to:

1. purposefully miss covered damages when convenient, or;

2. claim damages are insufficient to cover the policyholder's deductible.

In addition to failing to honor responsibilities to their insureds, insurance companies are also breaking the law when making a claim in what is known as "bad faith." Outright denying a claim without investigating, improperly investigating claims, and misrepresenting policy coverages are some of the MANY ways insurance companies operate in bad faith. More often than not, these bad faith insurance settlement practices are used against minority policyholders in the African-American/Black and Hispanic communities because historically insurance companies believe these groups do not have the resources to dispute claims decisions. Forrest law aggressively fights back against bad faith practices used by insurance companies and ensures policyholders receive the coverage promised to them by insurance companies.
