Insurance Company Bad Faith

People pay their monthly premiums for insurance coverage so that they will have something to rely on if tragedy befalls them. When someone enters into a contract with an insurance company, they rightfully expect that the company will come through for them if they are injured, get in a car wreck or provide for their families if they pass away. Sadly, this is often not the case, as some insurance companies leave their holders out to dry just when they need them most.

Insurance companies in the United States have an implied duty of good faith and fair dealing to those who they insure. If an insurance company tries to weasel out of covering an honest customer who has been paying their monthly dues by searching desperately for loopholes in the insurance contract, they are likely acting in bad faith and can be sued for this in addition to breach of contract.
