Insurance Companies are more than willing to sell you an Insurance Policy. These
Insurance policies may include, but are not limited to:
In
most cases, when a consumer must file an insurance claim to rebuild or repair
their home or business, for an auto accident, for health reasons, or in the
unfortunate circumstance of a loss of life, their insurance company responds in
an appropriate and satisfactory manner.
However, while the purpose of purchasing an insurance policy is to protect the
policy holder from a disaster, property damage, health and medical expenses, or
other valid circumstances, the bottom line for insurance companies is to make
money. In an effort to save their company money and protect their profits,
insurance companies will occasionally use one or more of the following methods:
-
DENY YOUR CLAIM: You
may have been informed that the damages do not meet your policy
deductible. This may have been determined incorrectly because:
A)
The insurance adjuster may have failed to document all damages
to your property.
B)
The insurance carrier simply chose to low-ball the claim.
If your claim has been denied, before you simply just accept
being told damages do not meet your policy deductible
contact The Law Offices of Peter A. Shapiro & Jonathan D. Wilson
for a review of your policy and damages. Your damages, may
in fact meet your deductible, and your damages may exceed your
policy limits.
-
DELAY YOUR CLAIM:
Make no mistake about it, the insurance industry is big
business. Delaying your insurance claim essentially keeps money
in the bank ensures interests are paid to a larger degree for
the insurance carriers bank accounts. The insurance carrier's
decision to delay your settlement, benefits, and/or payouts, may
actually increase the damage (example: to your home due to
untreated water damage, mold and fungus). The insurance carrier
is literally banking on you being so happy to receive your
settlement, although delayed, that you simply accept the
settlement and move on. If your settlement is being delayed by
your insurance carrier, properly document any additional damage
as a result of the delay. Once you accept a settlement,
insurance companies consider the claim closed.
UNDERPAY YOUR CLAIM:
Insurance companies will always pay the least amount as possible
for your insurance claim. Which is why obtaining the services of
a qualified Insurance Claim Attorney can make a noticeable
difference not only in the amount you are compensated for by the
insurance carrier, but also the speed in which the insurance
carrier handles your claim. If you have been under-compensated
for your damage or injuries, or illness, you have a right to
submit a claim for additional insurance money. This must be done
relatively quickly after receiving your initial settlement or
you will be barred from seeking additional money you are owed.
Other types of Insurance Claim issues our law firm can
help you address are PIP/No-Fault Insurance Claims and
Workers' Compensation Claims. These are programs and
policies that are relied upon in time of need that often
go through the same denial and delay processes of other
forms of insurance policies.
With regards to Workers' Compensation, it is not
uncommon for claims to be initially denied or disputed
by the Workers' Compensation Insurance Carrier. As your
legal counsel in any Insurance Claim Dispute, we will
let the insurance company know you mean business and
expect to be treated fairly and within a reasonable
period of time.
