Disability Insurance Claims
We offer powerful strategies for healthcare and business professionals whose insurance companies have wrongfully denied their disability claims or attempted to stop paying benefits.
Litigating and resolving insurance bad-faith claims requires not only knowledge of the complexities of the underlying substantive law, but a recognition of the tactics employed by key participants in the disability insurance industry.
Knowledge of our opponents’ strengths, weaknesses and litigation styles has proven to be extremely beneficial to our clients.
Insurance Litigation
Water, Fire & Theft Loss Claims and Bad Faith Insurance Litigation
Property owners who have suffered a loss of personal property or to their home or business due to water, fire or theft loss have particular rights and obligations under their insurance policy.
If your insurer under-scopes or underbids your loss and/or repairs to save money, leaving you with a financial loss or unable to restore your property to its pre-loss condition, we can help.
Depending on your state, you may have additional rights enabling you to bring a bad faith claim against your insurer if your insurer engages in improper or unfair business practices while adjusting your insurance claim.
Trust Litigation
The law imposes serious obligations on those involved with trusts, specifically, on trustees to protect the trust beneficiaries and uphold duties to preserve and manage the trust in a manner that protects beneficiaries.
We help trustees identify what duties they owe under a trust to beneficiaries and potential liability concerns, as well as aiding beneficiaries who have suffered a loss due to a trustee’s breach of fiduciary duty.
