Attorney Referrals

---

There are times when exhausting all reasonable measures even with professional help is simply not enough, the unfortunate reality is that not all insurance claims can be settled amicably.

Consulting with an attorney during an insurance claim can protect your rights and maximize your chances of a fair outcome. 

Here are a few key situations when it’s wise to consult with an attorney:

Denial of Payment through an Appraisal Award

• If your insurance company denies your claim and you believe the denial is unfair or incorrect, an attorney can help appeal the decision or file a lawsuit.
   

Refusal to Communicate

• If your insurance company, or their representative, refuses to communicate in a timely manner or even at all, your financial security and overall wellbeing can quickly become compromised. A lawyer can be very beneficial in getting the claim back on track.
   

The claim is delayed without explanation

• Unreasonable delays in processing or payment could indicate bad faith. A lawyer can pressure the insurer or file a complaint.
   

The case involves serious injuries or long-term disability

• Large claims are often scrutinized more heavily and may require legal strategy to document damages and secure proper compensation.
   

There is a dispute over liability

• If the insurer claims you were at fault or partially responsible (especially in auto or liability claims), an attorney can defend your position.
   

You’re being asked to give a recorded statement

• Statements can be used against you. An attorney can prepare you or speak on your behalf.
   

Your insurer is acting in bad faith

• Signs of bad faith include misleading statements, refusal to investigate, unjustified denials, or aggressive tactics. Legal action may be necessary.
   

You’re overwhelmed or unsure about your rights

• If the claim is complex (e.g. involving multiple parties, business policies, or legal interpretations), an attorney can explain your rights and obligations.
   

Third-party claims

• If someone else is at fault and their insurance is involved (e.g. a car accident), you may need legal help to recover from their insurer.
