Philadelphia Insurance Claim Disputes Attorney
Insurance coverage has become a serious issue for businesses and for individuals. What happens when the insurance company or a bonding company says you are not covered for something when you thought you were? Or what happens when the insurance company does not pay enough on a claim?

At the Timoney Knox law firm, we help businesses and individuals resolve insurance claims. Our attorneys know how to read the policies and hold insurance companies to the terms of the policy. Too often, we find, insurance companies are more focused on finding ways not to pay rather than honoring their obligations.
Who should pay for a construction delay? The purpose for insurance or bonding is to pay for construction delays such as weather-caused work stoppages. Contractors working on highways or commercial developments or residential projects pay for insurance to cover the risks. When the insurance will not pay, a lawyer can help you sort through the issues and resolve them. Denied coverage can leave a business with no protection.
What happens when the insurance company pays too little? Insurance companies will often minimize a problem in order to pay less. They may try to blame pre-exiting conditions or the actions of the person making the claim. You do not need to accept the explanation — especially when you feel it is unfair.
Insurance disputes need quick and fair resolutions. When an insurance company fails to pay a legitimate claim, the insurance company may be guilty of bad faith — accepting premiums without accepting the obligation of paying legitimate claims. Talk to a lawyer experienced with insurance claim denials.
