“Insurance Bad Faith: What It Is and What You Can Do About It

When you’re injured in an accident and file a claim with the insurance company, you expect them to treat you fairly. But too often, insurance companies delay, deny, or underpay legitimate claims — and that’s when it becomes insurance bad faith.

What Is Insurance Bad Faith?

Insurance companies have a legal duty to act in good faith and deal fairly with people who file claims. When they refuse to pay a valid claim, delay payment without reason, or offer far less than the claim is worth, they may be acting in bad faith — and you have legal rights.

Why Do Insurance Companies Act in Bad Faith?

Because their goal is profit. Every dollar they don’t pay you is a dollar they keep. Common tactics include:

• Unreasonable delays

• Lowball settlement offers

• Denying claims without investigation

• Ignoring medical evidence

• Blaming the victim or stalling communication

These aren’t just unfair — they’re often illegal.

What Should You Do If You Suspect Bad Faith?

1. Document everything – Save emails, letters, adjuster notes, and records of every call.

2. Get a second opinion – If the offer feels too low, it probably is.

3. Talk to an attorney who understands insurance bad faith – You may be entitled to more than your original claim — including punitive damages to punish the insurance company.
