Understand when insurance company behavior rises to the level of bad faith.
Disputes between insurance companies and policyholders unfortunately seem to be on the rise. This material will help the lawyer who advises people or businesses understand when insurance company behavior rises to the level of bad faith, what tactics we see from insurers who attempt to minimize the amount of money payable to the insured, and what resources the lawyer must address. This course will also provide different types of frustrating situations that clients may raise when attempting to get a fair and just payment from an insurance company after a loss.
