You rely on your insurance coverage to protect you after your property is damaged or a significant loss has happened. Unfortunately, many policyholders are unaware that their own insurance companies do not put their policyholders first.

If your insurance claim has been denied or grossly underpaid by your insurance company, what can you do? You may be able to file an insurance bad faith claim. The Hackney Law Firm has experience helping policyholders understand their rights and explore their options after a claim has been underpaid or denied.

Bad Faith Claims
What is insurance bad faith? The legal standard when it comes to bad faith claims is to determine if the insurance carrier had an arguable reason to deny or not fully pay the policyholder’s claim. If the insurance company violated the terms of the policy agreement or failed to pay the claim in full, policyholders may be able to file a lawsuit under bad faith insurance laws in Alabama.
