Kansas Insurance Bad Faith Claims
Many corporations talk about values like honesty and fairness while making decisions that seem to be driven solely by profit motives. Unfortunately, insurance companies are no different in this respect, particularly when dealing with their own policyholders. In some cases, in fact, misconduct related to the investigation, processing, and payment or denial of insurance claims rises to the level of something lawyers often refer to as ...

Kansas Insurance Bad Faith Claims
Many corporations talk about values like honesty and fairness while making decisions that seem to be driven solely by profit motives. Unfortunately, insurance companies are no different in this respect, particularly when dealing with their own policyholders. In some cases, in fact, misconduct related to the investigation, processing, and payment or denial of insurance claims rises to the level of something lawyers often refer to as "insurance bad faith" or "bad faith insurance."
If you are being treated unfairly by an insurance company, we can help you find a solution that doesn't require you to compromise your values even when insurance companies wrongfully refuse to pay you your rightful claim. To discuss your legal rights and options with an attorney who shares your values, call or contact the Law Office of J. Joseph Weber, P.A., in Wichita.
A pragmatic attorney with more than 27 years of experience, J. Joseph Weber understands that you want legal solutions that reflect your personal values, even when an insurance company's behavior might appeal to your baser instincts. Our law firm is willing to take on difficult cases that may require creative solutions. We understand how stressful these problems can be, and how hard it can be to find the right solution to this kind of problem.
Examples of Insurance Bad Faith
Not every processing delay or denied claim is the result of bad faith. Most insurance adjusters, in fact, have their hands tied by restrictive claims processing guidelines and do not possess the authority or support needed to timely and fairly process the claims they deal with.
That said, bad faith practices are common in the insurance industry and may involve a variety of different acts, including:
- Failing to investigate claims in a thorough, proper or timely way
- Unreasonably delaying payment of claims, "stonewalling" tactics
- Refusing to pay the full value of claims
- Denying claims without a reasonable and legally justifiable basis
- Using unreasonable interpretations of policy language to deny claims
Although we make every effort to resolve bad faith insurance claims outside of court, we are also ready and willing to take our cases to trial, should that become necessary. This can be a complex area of the law with time-sensitive claim requirements.
