Los Angeles Homeowners’ Insurance Lawyers

Fighting for Homeowners Victimized by Bad Faith Practices

For most of us, our homes are our biggest financial investment and carry a great deal of emotional significance. Homeowners’ insurance is an important means of protecting this investment. You pay your insurance premiums with the understanding that you will be protected if your home is ever damaged. When your home sustains damage, you depend on your insurance company to live up to its end of the bargain.

In too many cases, however, insurance companies refuse to make good on their policies. They act unreasonably, needlessly delaying claims or claiming that the damages to your home are excluded under the policy. This is called “acting in bad faith,” and at Greene Broillet & Wheeler, LLP, our skilled Los Angeles homeowners’ insurance attorneys can help you hold them accountable for failing to follow through.

We’re here to help you hold insurers responsible. Call us today at (866) 634-4525 or contact us online for more information about how we can help. 

Why Hire an Attorney for Bad Faith Claims?

Many insurance companies make a practice of delaying or minimizing claims with the understanding that many claimants will simply quit. When insurance companies engage in bad faith practices, it can cause lasting damage to you and your family. If your insurance company is failing to make good on the terms of the policy, you need an attorney who will hold them accountable.

Greene Broillet & Wheeler, LLP, represents individuals who have suffered substantial injury at the hands of their insurance companies. Our Los Angeles lawyers are dedicated to holding these companies responsible for their actions, and since 1970, we’ve established a powerful reputation for offering rigorous legal counsel in such matters.

Insurance companies engage in all sorts of activities that can constitute bad faith:

• Denying valid claims based on incorrect interpretations of policy exclusions
• Delay in paying a claim
• Delay in investigating claims

Does Homeowners’ Insurance Cover Injuries on My Property?

Another issue that can come up in homeowners’ insurance is when someone is injured on your property. Your insurance company has the duty to defend you against claims that fall within the scope of the policy. Our law firm will investigate your case and make a claim that fully accounts for all of your damages. In insurance bad faith claims, it may be possible to recover punitive damages in addition to your other damages. Whether your case is resolved in trial or in settlement negotiations, you can depend on GB&W to present a strong case.
