When they file claims for insurance benefits, people are often surprised to find that insurance companies seem more interested in trying every trick possible to avoid paying the benefits than they do fulfilling their promises. Insurance companies don’t care that premiums were paid. They don’t care that you have lost a loved one and need the money from a life insurance policy, or that you or someone you care about has become ill or injured and needs the money from a short-term or long-term disability insurance policy.
All insurance companies care about is protecting their bottom line. After a claim is filed, an insurance company will not only review the claim itself, but the insurance policy. The insurance company will look for anything possible that they can use to claim the policy is not valid and was never valid. For this reason, it is important to ensure that your rights are protected.

This is sometimes referred to as a bad faith insurance denial. The wrongful cancellation or rescission of insurance benefits may put individuals in difficult situations.
If you have an insurance policy with a company that is attempting to cancel the policy or refuses to provide benefits, you may be able to make a claim against the insurance company for breach of contract. Filing a successful claim may allow you to obtain the benefits and compensation you deserve. You do not have to face the insurance company alone. Contact our personal injury attorneys in NYC today.

Though these companies face consequences for making illegal repudiations and rescissions, they will not necessarily be held accountable without legal action.
