Bad Faith Insurance Claims Lawyers

A bad faith insurance claim describes litigation against an insurance company. It is a tort claim that an insured individual may have against the insurance company for its unreasonable failure to pay claims promptly fully and fairly.

Insurance companies owe a duty of good faith and fair dealing of the persons they insure. This duty is often referred to as the “implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing” which automatically exists by operation of law in every insurance contract.

In addition to a tort claim, the insured person may also sue the company for breach of contract. The contract-tort distinction is significant because as a matter of public policy punitive or exemplary damages are unavailable for contract claims but are available for tort claims. The end result is that a plaintiff in an insurance bad faith case may be able to recover an amount larger than the original face value of the policy if the insurance company’s conduct was particularly egregious.

Many law firms rely on lawyers or paralegals to review, interpret, and understand medical records. Lawyers and paralegals are not medically trained professionals. Although these legal professionals need to have a working understanding of general medical issues to effectively represent clients in personal injury or medical malpractice cases, their conclusions about those medical records cannot always be relied upon.

At the Attorneys for Freedom Law Firm, we have a team of medical professionals who can review your records. They can also offer additional medical-related recommendations to further develop all aspects of our clients’ cases.

I’m impressed. Without details about an ongoing situation, I want to say I am soooo happy I signed... up for the Attorney’s on Retainer program. I’ve been a client for some time, but never really expected to need them. Well, low and behold a very unhinged man made it a point to come straight at me and attack me, then claimed a different story. I am so happy that I already knew exactly who to call. I called the emergency line and Mr. Harris and Mr. Victor quickly got all over helping me. They jumped right in without hesitation. I highly recommend their program, not just for firearm owners that carry, but for anyone living in these crazy times where we might be forced to defend ourselves.read more

I was needing good representation. I was really impressed with their handling of cases in the past... and thought they had I good reputation. They did a good case review on everything, developed a good strategy and after almost a year and a half prevailed and even uncovered some procedural issues. You can tell everybody you talk to there is passionate about what they do. I think them for their professionalism and expertise.read more

I was involved in a live fire situation with one fatality. the county was looking at me for... discharging a firearm near an occupied structure and some other things. once I called AFF, the county quickly changed their tune and said it was a righteous shoot, and I would NOT be charged. interesting how having a lawyer can change things, and having a GOOD lawyer makes all the difference.read more

Andy and his team at Attorneys for Freedom are incredible! I was quickly able to get an appointment... for a consultation after a small incident and Andy took it from there. My experience with them was second to none, and after all was said and done, Andy and his team came in considerably under budget and sent me my refund check incredibly quick. If you're anything like me, you've never been in a situation that needed a lawyer. I called around 10 different law firms in Arizona, and I can say with 100% certainty that I made the right choice with choosing Attorneys for Freedom. Are they the cheapest; no. Do they deliver; absolutely. I 100% recommend this firm for anyone in the state of Arizona.read more
