Insurance companies should pay claimants what they’re owed. When these organizations withhold payment from claimants, pressure them into accepting low settlements, or otherwise employ “bad-faith insurance practices,” you have legal rights and protections.
Berger and Green has more than 40 years of experience advocating for Pennsylvanians. If you’re having a hard time dealing with an insurance company, our Pittsburgh insurance claims lawyers are ready to help. We offer free, confidential case reviews during which you can explore your options.
We believe that if you have insurance coverage, you deserve those benefits. We’re ready to manage your case if one or more of the following factors apply to you:
Many insurance companies unjustly deny valid claims. They do this to save money or discourage claimants from seeking what they need. When this happens, the insurance company must give a written reason why it denied your claim. Otherwise, the organization may not be acting in good faith.
If the insurance company denies your claim, we can:
Insurance companies may resort to extreme measures to deny claimants compensation. For instance, you might speak to one representative and build rapport, only to deal with a different person the next time you call.
The insurance company may also delay your claim, hoping you’ll drop it, or that when it finally offers a settlement, you’ll accept it without hesitation.
Berger and Green holds insurance companies accountable. Not only will we manage all communications with insurance representatives, but we will also fight to ensure they treat you fairly.
Our insurance claims lawyers in Pittsburgh want to recover the full cost of your damages. You should receive everything the liable insurance policy covers––and not a penny less.
If the claims adjuster offers a low settlement, we can:
The insurance company may give you misleading information to jeopardize your claim’s success. For instance, it might say that you have two weeks to submit your claim. Then, after you file it, the insurer may say you missed the deadline because you only had a one-week deadline.
We don’t have patience for dishonest insurance companies. If you’re getting the wrong information, you have protection both under the law and from your lawyer. We’ll do everything possible to promote your insurance claim’s success.
These are just some examples of bad-faith insurance practices listed above. If you’re encountering an issue not listed here, we’re ready to hear your story.
Each insurance policy is unique. Some provide total coverage for catastrophic events. Others only cover damages up to a certain monetary value. That being said, after reviewing the applicable insurance policy, you could recover:
Other recoverable damages may apply to your situation.
You might have heard of “the statute of limitations.” Under Pa. C.S.A. § 5524, adults generally have two years to file a personal injury civil lawsuit. However, this deadline may not apply to your insurance claim, depending on the type of claim and type of insurance involved.
Depending on the type of claim, each insurance company may have its own rules regarding filing deadlines and other time-sensitive issues. We understand that after getting hurt, managing your case can get complicated.
With our insurance claims lawyers in Pittsburgh on your side, you don’t have to worry about anything. We will do everything your case requires.
The insurance company can’t deny your claim for no reason. It must provide a written explanation as to why. Once we review the reason, we can craft a strategy to recover what you deserve. If the insurance company still won’t cooperate:
If you suffered harm due to negligence (like in a collision or slip and fall), we can sue the at-fault party. You can also pursue recovery for non-economic damages, such as pain and suffering.
When we file your lawsuit, you can trust our lawyers to:
Insurance coverage is supposed to provide compensation for specific situations. When the liable insurance provider doesn’t come through, you might worry about affording certain expenses – such as employing a lawyer from our firm.
