Long Beach Insurance Fraud Attorneys

An insurance policy is a contract between you (the insured) and an insurance company (the insurer). If you live up to your end of the contract by paying your premiums and submitting only valid claims, the insurer must live up to its end by paying valid claims. An insurance fraud attorney knows that denying a valid claim, or using tactics to stall or frustrate the insured is called bad faith and it is a form of insurance fraud.
