Bad Faith Insurance Claims

Lynn, Massachusetts Insurance Bad Faith Claims Attorneys

Since insurance companies are licensed in the states they operate in, they must adhere to certain state and federal regulations intended in part to protect policyholders. When insurers deny or delay payment on a claim, refuse coverage contained in a policy, or change policy terms without notifying an insured, they can be held liable for financial losses caused by illegal claims practices. The attorneys at Mazow|McCullough, P.C. represent people victimized by insurance bad faith claims practices, preparing all necessary paperwork and documents for trial. We're also prepared to work with state investigators in class-action lawsuits when insurers have routinely engaged in bad faith insurance practices across an entire region or the whole state.

If you are facing increased debt and financial uncertainty because your insurance company won't pay a claim or has taken an inordinately long time in processing your claim, contact the bad faith claims lawyers at Mazow|McCullough, P.C..

Bad Faith Insurance Practices

The law office of Mazow|McCullough, P.C. represents clients in regard to the following bad faith insurance practices:

• Unreasonable delay in paying claim
• Unreasonably denying a valid claim or failing to properly investigate a claim
• Unexplained or unannounced denial of coverage
• Change in policy terms without notification
• Cancellation of policy without due cause
• Reneging on agreement to pay for a loss
• Reclassifying a loss as an uncovered loss

Don't Argue with Your Insurer . . .

Most insurance companies train their employees in "loss prevention" programs designed to reduce claim payments and increase retention of premium dollars. Additionally, you can bet most departments and managers have an incentive program that rewards them for reducing losses. Arguing with a customer service representative or your agent is unlikely to resolve an issue if the company stands to lose money. Besides, even if one ignores the bureaucratic factors involved that can complicate matters, insurance companies often behave as if their policyholders are at their mercy - not the other way around.

. . . Refer them to Your Attorney

If you encounter delays, stonewalling, or tactics intended to intimidate, don't argue with your insurer - simply refer them to our office. Once you hire us as your legal representative, your insurance company will have to go through our office and deal with us. While we're prepared to litigate each of our cases, we're usually very effective in leveraging our client's case by simply notifying an insurer we intend to notify the Massachusetts Attorney General's office and the State's Insurance Governor's office in preparation for trial.
