Denver Bad Faith Insurance Lawyers

Insurance Disputes Demand an Experienced Colorado Bad Faith Insurance Lawyer

When an insurance company refuses to compensate you or your family for a personal injury that wasn’t your fault, taking strong legal action is crucial. Insurance companies will often try to intimidate you, using tactics to pressure you into accepting a lower settlement than you deserve. In some cases, they might claim they simply can't offer more money. However, you shouldn’t have to suffer financially because of someone else’s reckless behavior, especially when you’re dealing with mounting medical bills and other expenses.

If you or a loved one has suffered a brain injury due to someone else’s negligence, navigating insurance disputes can be particularly stressful. Brain injuries often require extensive medical treatment and long-term care, leading to significant financial strain. Unfortunately, insurance companies are known to downplay the severity of such injuries to minimize payouts. In these situations, having experienced legal representation can make a significant difference in ensuring you receive fair compensation for the damages you’ve suffered.

Disputes can also arise in cases of premises liability, where property owners' insurance companies may try to avoid paying for damages. Whether it’s a slip-and-fall accident or an incident caused by unsafe conditions, these companies often attempt to shift the blame onto the victim to escape liability. Understanding your rights and the legal process is essential in these cases to challenge the tactics used by insurers and secure the compensation you are entitled to.

At Bell & Pollock, our bad faith insurance attorneys take a tough stance against insurance companies. Their scare tactics do not intimidate us. We know how to negotiate with them, and we know how to get our clients the compensation they rightfully deserve. We will not rest until justice is served. We fight especially hard against insurance companies that are not dealing fairly with injury victims. This practice is known as “bad faith,” and it’s against the law.

Bad faith insurance is a legal term used to describe insurance companies that knowingly try to deceive clients or behave in an unethical manner. For example, if you’re injured in an auto accident caused by another driver and an insurance company refuses to pay for your injuries, you may have grounds to file a bad faith lawsuit in Colorado.
