Bad Faith Insurance Claims FAQs

  • A bad faith insurance claim arises when an insurance company fails to fulfill its obligations to policyholders in a timely or fair manner. This can include unreasonably denying a valid claim, delaying payment without justification, or offering an inadequate settlement.

  • Signs of bad faith by an insurance company may include unresponsiveness to your claim, unreasonable delays in processing, undervaluing your losses, or outright denial without a valid reason. If you suspect bad faith, it's essential to consult with an experienced attorney who can evaluate your situation.

  • In a successful bad faith insurance claim, policyholders may be entitled to recover damages such as the original amount owed under the insurance policy, any additional financial losses incurred due to the insurer's actions, emotional distress, and in some cases, punitive damages.

  • The statute of limitations for filing a bad faith insurance claim varies by state and the type of insurance policy. In Oklahoma, for example, the statute of limitations for a bad faith claim is typically two years from the date of the insurer's wrongful actions or the date the policyholder discovers the bad faith conduct.

  • While you have the right to pursue a bad faith insurance claim on your own, insurance companies often have teams of lawyers working to protect their interests. Having an experienced attorney on your side can level the playing field and increase your chances of success in obtaining fair compensation for your losses.

  • Evidence that may support a bad faith insurance claim includes correspondence with the insurance company, documentation of your claim and damages, records of communication and interactions with the insurer, and any relevant policies or contracts. Additionally, witness statements or expert testimony may be valuable in demonstrating bad faith conduct.

  • The timeline for resolving a bad faith insurance claim varies depending on factors such as the complexity of the case, the willingness of the insurance company to negotiate, and whether litigation is necessary. Some claims may be settled relatively quickly through negotiation, while others may require litigation and could take months or even years to resolve.
