Insurance Claim Disputes

FREE Consultation / No Recovery = No Fee
Florida Bad Faith Insurance Claim Dispute Law Firm
Protecting the legal rights of Florida residents who are the victim of insurance "bad faith"

An insurance policy is a contract.

The insured person promises to pay premiums and abide by the conditions of the policy. In return, the insurance company promises to compensate the insured for a loss, also according to the conditions of the policy. When an insurance company fails to meet its obligations both according to Florida state law and the policy itself, they are said to have committed "bad faith" and can be held liable for both the original claim and punitive damages.

At the North Miami Beach law offices of Michael Lechtman, we help Florida residents who have been victimized by an insurance company contract breach to recover compensation, regardless of whether the dispute is the result of;

bad faith / negligence / incompetence / fraud - misrepresentation / Homeowner's / Life / Medical - Health - Disability / Auto / Commercial Insurance / Fire / Flood / Hail / Hurricane / Storm Damage / Personal Injury - Wrongful Death

• Delays and Stalling - compelling you to accept a smaller claim or no claim at all
• Impossible Conditions / Stonewalling - requiring excessive documentation or verification of a claim
• Unreasonable Expectations - requiring you to resubmit information / gather new information that has already been established
• Adjuster / Estimate Disputes - changing adjusters or requiring multiple adjusters / quotes
• Failure to Indemnify or Defend - failure to pay a claim when a judgment is made against a Florida homeowner's insurance policy
• Deceptive Practices - making statements that are later contradicted during a claim / claim denial based on incorrect - incomplete information on original policy application
• Fraud / Misrepresentation - including evaluations, appraisals and adjustments
