Bad Faith Denial and Insurance Disputes
Insurance companies make money by collecting and investing the premiums you paid in good faith, and by reducing their payout on claims. But there is a difference between interpreting policies in their favor and knowingly denying legitimate claims which is insurance fraud. You are protected from insurance fraud under bad faith insurance laws. Our firm examines the specific terms of your policy to determine what you are rightfully owed and investigates whether similar claims have been routinely denied by your insurance company.

CASE STUDY
Client: Church
Location: Savannah, GA
Matter: Faulty construction and defective materials
Facts: A congregation built a wood framed church building that was clad with synthetic stucco. The synthetic stucco held water and rotted the wood frame in places. The moisture also attracted termites to the wet wood. An investigation into the construction of the church found that the manufacturer’s directions had not been followed and that the product itself was defective. The investigation also revealed that the building had structural problems.
Result: The case was tried to a jury and the jury returned a verdict of $500,000 in the first trial. The court ordered a new trial and a second jury awarded $350,000.
