They should provide compensation when the insured person files a relevant claim, but many policyholders end up struggling to recover what they are entitled to through the policy.

Dawson and Anita Rosenthal lead our firm with decades of experience and relentless advocacy for clients’ rights in trial.

We help individuals with denied claims and insurance bad faith related to health care, auto insurance, homeowners insurance and commercial liability insurance.
Proving Bad Faith Insurance Took Place, Serious Injuries And More
When a claim has been denied, the insurance company will argue that it was due to the claim falling outside of policy lines. Remember that insurance companies are businesses. They are concerned with paying out as little as possible to build their own wealth. While some denied claims are single instances of bad faith, many insurance companies have institutionalized it as standard practice.
Our firm has helped uncover evidence of pervasive and prevalent insurance bad faith in a wide range of cases. We use this information to our clients’ advantage to aggressively demonstrate the relevance of their claims in trial, ultimately recovering maximum compensation. In addition, we represent select serious injury cases, including catastrophic and wrongful death claims.

Filing an Insurance Claim
When contacting your insurance company to file a claim, it is important to be thoroughly prepared with any evidence or data that can corroborate your claim.
When filing the claim, do not forget to take detailed notes of any and all correspondence you have with your insurance company, including names of agents and dates of communication. Having a comprehensive library of data to back up your claim can decrease your chances of your claim being rightfully denied by an insurance company.
An Experienced Insurance Law Attorney Can Help
Exercising due diligence and keeping comprehensive notes through the claims process can be a daunting task – especially if you are not intimately familiar with the details of your policy. This can be all the more difficult if you were seriously injured from an accident and must focus your energy on healing and recovery.
