Houston Lawyers Handling Insurance Claims Disputes
You pay your premiums. You have a right to expect your insurance company to work with you fairly and pay the benefits you expect. Unfortunately, many insurance companies treat their own policyholders as hostile claimants when it comes to processing a claim.
At Kerr & Hendershot, we fight aggressively to protect our clients' rights and financial interests in all matters relating to bad faith insurance practices. Our attorneys handle disputes involving:
- Declaratory judgment actions to determine coverage
- Denied claims
- Delayed payment
- Cancelled insurance policies
Our well balanced understanding of insurance coverage disputes enables our firm's attorneys to aggressively litigate insurance claims for our clients.
We have represented individuals and groups with claims against insurance companies. We have vast experience in reviewing policies, including, but not limited to, general liability, umbrella health, disability and pollution policies, to determine whether claims should be covered under the policy.
Disputes about your deductible? When you signed up for your insurance policy, your deductible amount probably seemed straightforward. But when it comes to making a claim, insurance adjusters have some hidden tricks that allow them to increase the amount of deductible, based on whether they calculate the deductible amount per claim or per plaintiff seeking money damages. In the case of a claim filed by multiple plaintiffs, some insurance companies will charge multiple times the actual deductible amount called for in the policy.
In insurance coverage disputes, as in all legal disputes and practice areas, Kerr & Hendershot attorneys put your best interests first. If it is more advantageous to settle than to continue litigation, we recommend that clients resolve insurance coverage disputes expeditiously and prudently.
No matter what type of dispute you have with your insurance provider, get experienced legal help. Contact our offices in Houston or Corpus Christi today. We are available at our Corpus Christi office by appointment only.
