Fighting Bad Faith Insurance Companies

You pay your insurance premiums faithfully, expecting your provider to be there for you when disaster strikes. Unfortunately, insurance companies are for-profit businesses that often put their bottom line ahead of their policyholders’ needs. When an insurer unreasonably denies, delays, or underpays a valid claim, it may be acting in “bad faith.”

Attorney Chris Sanchez holds insurance companies accountable to the promises they made in their policies. Whether your home was damaged by a hurricane in Houston or hail in the RGV, we fight to make the insurance company pay what you are rightfully owed.

Common Bad Faith Tactics:

  • Denying a claim without a valid reason.
  • Unreasonably delaying the investigation or payment.
  • Making a “lowball” offer that doesn’t cover all damages.
  • Misrepresenting the terms of your insurance policy.
  • Failing to conduct a thorough and fair investigation.
