Florida Auto Insurance Bad Faith Lawyers

At Rafferty Domnick Cunningham & Yaffa, we are dedicated to protecting the rights of policyholders who have been wronged by their auto insurance providers. When insurance companies act in bad faith—delaying payouts, denying legitimate claims, or offering inadequate settlements—it’s not just unfair, it’s unlawful. Our experienced Florida auto insurance bad faith lawyers are here to help you hold these companies accountable and secure the compensation you deserve.

What is Auto Insurance Bad Faith?

Auto insurance bad faith occurs when an insurance company fails to honor its legal obligation to act fairly and in good faith toward its policyholders. Instead of providing timely and reasonable claim resolutions, some insurers engage in deceptive or unethical practices that leave policyholders at a disadvantage.

Common examples of bad faith include:

• Unjustified Denial of Claims: Denying valid claims without proper investigation or explanation.
• Delayed Payments: Unreasonably postponing claim payouts without providing valid reasons.
• Lowball Settlements: Offering settlements far below the value of the claim.
• Misrepresentation of Policy Terms: Misleading policyholders about their coverage to avoid paying claims.

If you suspect your insurance company is engaging in bad faith practices, our legal team is here to provide the guidance you need.

Your Rights as a Policyholder

As a policyholder, you are entitled to fair and honest treatment under the law. Insurance companies have a duty to:

• Investigate claims promptly and thoroughly.
• Provide a legitimate reason for claim denials.
• Pay out valid claims in a timely manner.

When they fail to meet these obligations, you have the right to take legal action. Our attorneys specialize in uncovering bad faith practices and pursuing justice on your behalf.
