Denial of insurance claims

If you’re spending more time fighting with your insurance company than focusing on recovery, it may be time to speak with us. An insurance policy is a contract—one that requires both you and the insurance company to uphold your obligations.

When an insurer delays, denies, or undervalues a claim, they may be in breach of that contract. By law, insurance companies must treat policyholders fairly and in good faith. If they fail to do so, you may be entitled to recover not only the value of your loss but also legal fees, interest, and in some cases, punitive damages.


In Pennsylvania, the statute of limitations for filing an insurance coverage dispute can be as short as one year. Don’t wait to protect your rights.
