But, that does not always happen. Actually, some insurance companies will employ bad faith tactics to deny or reduce payments of claims.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, insurance companies have the responsibility to handle your claim in good faith. Thus, understanding these bad faith insurance tactics will help you keep them accountable.<\/p>\n<h2>What are Bad faith tactics?<\/h2>\n<p>First, bad faith tactics are generally characterized as dishonest practices to get out of paying a valid claim. So, here are some bad faith tactics you should look out for when you file a claim.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Delaying Claims<\/strong> &#8211; Some insurance companies will delay processing a claim hoping the claimant will give up. For this reason, states have established deadlines for denying or accepting a claim.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Failing to Complete Investigation<\/strong> &#8211; Admittedly, insurance companies should complete a personal inspection. And look at all evidence to confirm the policyholder&#8217;s claim.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lowballing<\/strong> &#8211; When the insurance company offers less money than a claim is worth.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Unwillingness to Pay a Valid Claim<\/strong> &#8211; This is when insurers deny claims covered by their policies.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Distorting Policy Language<\/strong> &#8211; So, some insurance companies will misrepresent the language of the policy or law. Then they will use it against the policyholder to deny a claim.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Threats<\/strong> &#8211; Unfortunately, some insurers may use threatening statements. Or, imply harsh legal action against a claimant.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In all honesty, if you experience any of these tactics from an insurance company, you need to contact an <a href=\"https:\/\/www2.rhinolawyers.com\/how-we-can-help\/\">auto accident attorney<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Bad faith Florida Laws<\/h2>\n<p>Finally, to help protect individuals from bad faith tactics Florida established <a href=\"http:\/\/www.leg.state.fl.us\/statutes\/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&amp;Search_String=&amp;URL=0600-0699\/0626\/Sections\/0626.9541.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">statute 626.9541<\/a>.
