Steve Frederick, a Kentucky insurance bad faith lawyer  represents individuals against insurance companies who refuse to pay claims or make low ball offers.

In Kentucky, Insurance companies are not permitted to make low ball offers or refuse to pay under an insurance policy when a valid claim is brought against them.  In fact, insurance companies must make a good faith effort to settle claims that are brought by those seeking benefits under a policy.  Personal injury claims, claims for medical bills, disability claims, and property damages claims all must be evaluated by insurance companies in good faith. 

Suit may be filed against an insurance company that fails to deal fairly with claimants and policyholders.  In some instances, damages for emotional distress and punitive damages may even be awarded to claimants.

The Kentucky Unfair Claims Settlement Practice Act was created by Kentucky’s legislature to protect claimants from unfair insurance practices.
