Trust the Team at Denver Trial Lawyers ®; Call Now!

As a business owner, delays can be costly. When your time is so valuable, costly delays after your business experiences a catastrophic loss will only set you back further.

When you depend on an insurance policy to provide you with the compensation to cover your losses, it’s easy to become frustrated when it seems like an insurance company won’t follow up on their end of the bargain.

But what you may not realize is that insurance providers are bound by law to act in good faith and that neglecting this responsibility could have consequences.

At Denver Trial Lawyers ®, we’re an experienced team of attorneys who understand what you’re going through when your insurance acts in bad faith. We understand what’s at risk and how much you depend on getting a swift and proper settlement to your claim when you’ve suffered a tremendous loss.

Am I a Victim of Bad Faith Insurance?

Insurance companies have a legal duty to act in “good faith,” which essentially means handling your claim promptly and paying out the amount they have said they will cover you for.

However, insurance companies are businesses like yours, and that means the more money they pay out the tighter their margins become. Thus, many companies often use underhanded tactics to try and either force claimants to take reduced settlements or even to completely absolve themselves of their financial responsibility.

You might be the victim of bad faith insurance if you experience any of the following:

  • Excessive or unnecessary paperwork
  • Lowball settlement offers
  • Slow or non-existent responses to requests for information
  • Failure to pay agreed-upon settlements

Each of these is a tactic which companies use to try and discourage claimants and policyholders from continuing to pursue their case and thus be willing to accept a significantly reduced settlement amount.

In many cases, companies simply out-wait their claimants, delaying the payout for as long as possible until the claimant is willing to accept a fraction of how much their case is actually worth.

    "Jordan and her team were kind, attractive, and comprehensive with us, always answering our questions and concerns promptly."
    We lost our daughter at birth due to medical malpractice, and after a law firm said that they couldn't take our case due to the difficulty of our case, we found Jordan LaBonde Grosgebauer who took our case. She was able to get justice for our daughter. They are truly a marvelous team and an amazing law firm. We will always be grateful to her for taking care of us in such a difficult time.

    "We are incredibly grateful to Jordan Grosgebauer and the entire team at Denver Trial Lawyers."
    After the devastating loss of our son due to medical malpractice, we felt lost, heartbroken, and unsure where to turn. Jordan was the only attorney who not only took the time to truly listen to us, but also believed in our case when others wouldn’t. Throughout the entire process, Jordan was patient, compassionate, and always available to answer our questions. She helped guide us through one of the most painful times in our lives with empathy and professionalism. Thanks to Jordan and her team's dedication and expertise, we were able to find a sense of justice for our son. We can’t thank Jordan and her team enough for their unwavering support and commitment. They brought us a measure of peace during an otherwise unimaginable time, and we will always be grateful.

    "Stephen Wahlberg went above and beyond in their empathetic approach."

    Stephen Wahlberg recently helped my family and me in a wrongful death case, which we filed on behalf of my mother. I’ll never forget the day of - it was surreal. Having been through these situations many times before in his career, Steve came to our side and had his staff on the scene immediately. He was highly recommended by trusted friends, and his presence offered a breath of fresh air. It was a relief in many ways, to know that he would "take care of it.” I highly recommend him to anyone who may be considering his services. I am grateful we were gifted with an incredible human being AND brilliant/talented/experienced/well-connected lawyer to support us through the legal process. Thanks again, Steve and team!

    "I put my TRUST in Dan Sloane."
    I hired Denver Trial Lawyers to represent us in a personal injury case. My mother was abused in a nursing home. I was able to call and get my questions answered in a quick response. Dan is very professional and impressed me during negotiations with his clever strategies. He sincerely cares and seeks justice. Dan knows what he's doing and won our case for us. Having the assurance of someone strong handling things when you're broken and trying to heal was such a RELIEF. Thanks to Dan Sloane and John McDonnell for helping us through this ordeal and getting justice and compensation for my mom.
