Was The Insurance Company There When Your Business Needed Them Most?
In business, owners and managers face risks every day. Wherever possible, they minimize those risks — often by buying business and commercial insurance.
Business and commercial insurance brokers reassure businesses: We'll be there when you need us. You can count on us. They are selling peace of mind. Too often, however, they do not deliver peace of mind when the time comes. At Girardi | Keese, our lawyers have more than 40 years of experience dealing with insurance bad faith issues.
Did your insurance company deny coverage for your business?
Business and commercial insurance policies offer wide-ranging coverage, but when an individual claim arises, the adjuster will often say "no" or minimize the claim without doing a thorough investigation.
Fire, theft (internal theft, burglary, robbery), burst pipes, roof collapse, uncollectible invoices, a slip-and-fall accident, interruption of business operations — the potential for risk is always there for a business.
- Did the insurance company do a thorough, complete investigation? Or did they deny the claim without a thorough investigation?
- Was your business involved in damage to a third party? Did the insurance company fail to defend you?
- Has the insurance company delayed payment on a claim? Did they completely deny a claim that is legitimate and within the policy?
You bought business and commercial insurance to protect your business. Our trial attorneys represent small businesses throughout California that have been denied insurance coverage after paying the premiums and suffering a loss the policy claimed to cover.
