Insurance Coverage / Bad Faith

At Butler, Wooten & Fryhofer, we represent insured individuals who have suffered a serious loss and have been treated unfairly by their insurance company. Sometimes the insurance company has denied the claim; sometimes they have provided an unfair settlement of a claim. What we have found over the years is that insurance coverage issues commonly arise following an accident. If your insurance claim has been denied or the insurance payment is unreasonably delayed, we can help you to identify the applicable insurance and resolve any legal issues that may exist.

Our experience in representing consumers and homeowners who have been cheated or treated unfairly by their insurance company is extensive. We have handle a great variety of insurance bad faith cases including claims arising under homeowner, automobile, errors and omissions, medical, health, commercial general liability and officers and directors insurance policies.

Our insurance coverage and bad faith cases have involved a variety of issues, including:

  • Bad Faith Failure to Pay Benefits Owed
  • Bad Faith Failure to Protect the Insured from Judgment
  • Driver Screening Liability (Failure to Screen Out Unqualified Truck Drivers)

We offer our clients litigation, arbitration and mediation services in all aspects of insurance law, including bad faith claims and coverage disputes. If your insurance claim has been denied or your payment has been unreasonable delayed; contact us. We are committed to protecting the rights of individuals just like you.
