Insurance Bad Faith

Insurance companies are self-interested, which is why it is necessary for the law office of Scott & Wallace LLP to sometimes pursue insurance and bad faith claims. Insurance companies profit by delaying payment on good faith claims, because delay makes them money. Insurance companies receive thousands of claims every day and wrongfully delay or even deny many of them in order to save money. Since few people take the time to dispute their claim with insurers, insurance companies are able to retain millions of dollars by denying, delaying, and underpaying claims. Such delays often constitute bad faith claims.
