How Will Our Lawyer Help You With a Bad Faith Insurance Claim Denial?
Our lawyer will look for ways to achieve case results that match your expectations. To deliver these results, your lawyer will help you with your bad faith insurance claim denial in several ways, such as:
- Conducting an independent investigation. We will assess your insurance policy, document all communications between you and your insurer regarding your denied claim, and gather evidence to help show that the insurer wrongfully and unreasonably withheld benefits.
- Writing and sending a demand letter. Our lawyer will issue a formal demand letter that outlines your insurance company’s legal obligations and documented violations. This has the potential to prompt your insurer to offer a fair settlement.
- Managing your appeal. We strive to ensure that every requirement for the formal appeals process is met within deadlines.
- Bringing your case to trial. If necessary, we are ready to file a bad faith lawsuit if settlement negotiations are unsuccessful.

Types of Compensation Available That Our Lawyer Wants to Recover for You
Our attorney wants to prove that you are dealing with a bad faith insurance denial and that your compensation request is valid. As part of our efforts to help with your case, we will examine your quantifiable and subjective losses.
Based on these, we will pursue various types of economic and non-economic damages for you, including:
- Contractual: We want you to be compensated for the benefits owed under the policy.
- Consequential: In some cases, consequential damages are available for financial losses caused by an improper denial. These losses relate to foreclosure, bankruptcy, medical complications, or other consequences of the denial.
- Emotional distress: Where permitted by applicable law, we will seek compensation for emotional distress resulting from an insurer’s conduct.
Per Missouri Revised Statutes § 516.120.1, there is generally a five-year statute of limitations for most contract, obligation, and liability claims. Due to this, you typically have five years from the date that your insurance company failed to act in good faith or formally denied your claim to sue for these and other compensatory damages.
Reasons to Hire an Attorney to Help With Your Bad Faith Claim Denial
Our lawyer for bad faith insurance denials will advocate for your rights and best interests if your insurer attempts to delay or lowball your claim. At the same time, they will help you gather evidence to support your claim, give you insights into complex insurance laws, and position you to recover maximum compensation.
Depending on the circumstances of your denied claim, our attorney will pursue damages beyond unpaid policy benefits and help you secure compensation for emotional distress and other tangible and intangible losses. To accomplish our goal, we’ll assess your damages and prepare our argument designed to prove why your compensation request is warranted.
Outside of these things, our lawyers work on a contingency–fee basis. This means you only have to pay us if we get compensation for you. As such, we eliminate the financial risk that often comes with hiring attorneys.
