Seattle Insurance Bad Faith Attorney
When consumers spend their hard-earned money to purchase insurance coverage, they expect to be treated fairly by their own company. But too often, this is not the case. In fact, many bodily injury claims involve insurance bad faith.
What is Insurance Bad Faith?
Insurance bad faith claims can arise in a variety of situations. When an insured has coverage types such as Personal Injury Protection or Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist protection, the injured insured individual can make a claim against their own policy.
Insurance bad faith claims may include:
- Wrongfully denying payment of a claim
- Unreasonably delaying payments of benefits
- Failing to provide coverage
- Failing to settle the claim within the limits of the insurance policy
- Violating other applicable insurance laws
Insurers have a fiduciary duty to their insured and need to be held accountable. If you have been a victim of any of the above transgressions, you may have an insurance bad faith case.

Compliance with the Law
Insurance companies must be licensed to sell insurance by the state. They are regulated and must comply with state laws. Many insurance policy holders have disputes with their carriers over coverage and the amount offered by their insurance to settle a claim. Insurance bad faith claims typically arise when an insurer is acting unreasonably and failing to live up to insurance law and the terms of its own policy.
