Insurance Coverage Disputes

We only represent policy holders and injured parties, never the insurance company

We help people and businesses when their insurance company denies their claim, refuses to pay the claims fair value, or refuses to defend them against a lawsuit or other legal claim. When justified, we bring claims for bad faith claims handling and seek damages beyond the policy benefits, including awards of attorney’s fees. Property losses, business interruption, failure to provide liability coverage, life and disability insurance claims, class actions – if your insurer has failed you, we can help.
