Indiana Insurance Dispute Attorney
Last updated on January 27, 2025
It is natural to want to hold an at-fault party responsible if they caused harm or injuries. Still, even if another person caused your injuries, your case may not necessarily warrant guaranteed compensation. That is why hiring a knowledgeable and skilled Indianapolis personal injury lawyer at Parr Richey Frandsen Patterson Kruse LLP is so important.
Strong Counsel From A Personal Injury Lawyer In Indiana
If you have been involved in an accident, you likely will need time and money to recover properly. A skilled Indianapolis insurance dispute attorney can pursue your maximum compensation as you recover. The plaintiff must meet four criteria to collect damages to succeed in any personal injury claim. We are adept at proving all four:
- Duty of care: People must take measures to ensure their actions do not cause harm to others. A successful case must prove that a negligent party had a duty of care toward you or your loved one.
- Breach of duty: Negligence can result from failing to exercise a duty of care. A lawyer may prove that the breach of duty was foreseeable to the negligent party and that the negligent party did not exercise proper care to prevent the injury from occurring.
- Cause of the accident: Lawyers may prove that the cause of an accident was directly related to the breach of care committed by the negligent party.
- Your damages: The compensation amount hinges on the calculated damages. A skilled attorney can prove that not only are the damages a direct result of the accident but can also calculate the total cost of the injuries so the injured gets the right amount.
We understand that each claim is different, and we work with clients to address all their case needs.
What Is Insurance Bad Faith?
As a policyholder, you trust and rely on your insurance company to honor its contract to provide financial help after an accident. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. Most insurance companies typically do not want to have a lawsuit on their hands. However, companies will still try to offer policyholders the least possible amount in order to turn a larger profit. Sometimes, the company does not fulfill its obligation outlined in the policy.
Examples of bad faith insurance can Include:
- Deceptive practices to avoid paying claims
- Refusal to pay a claim while providing no reasonable justification
- Failing to investigate the claim promptly
- Unreasonable delay in resolving a claim
- Failing to disclose policy limits and explain policy provisions or exclusions
- Arbitrary or unreasonable demands for proof of loss
- Compelling an insured to contribute to the settlement
In many instances, insurance companies representing negligent parties will attempt to negotiate a settlement offer with you. If another party’s negligence caused you or a member of your family injury, we can help evaluate the proper settlement with your insurance company. If the company is unreasonable in assessing your claim, we will not be afraid to take your claim to court so that you receive the maximum compensation promised in your policy!
