Philadelphia Insurance Bad Faith Attorneys

Insurance companies have obligations to their insured which that they often do not meet. Insurers may refuse to pay a valid claim, or may breach a duty of good faith owed to a plaintiff or, more commonly, to a defendant in a case. In any of these circumstances, serious financial harm may occur and a legal claim against the insurer can arise. Where health insurance is involved, managed care interference with a patient's medial care can sometimes cause physical harm to a patient.

YRC&H attorneys have substantial experience in this complicated and ever-changing field of the law. YRC&H attorneys have obtained six, seven and eight figure verdicts and settlements in direct claims against insurers who have not met their obligations.

In addition to representing individuals and families, YRC&H attorneys have been asked to write amicus curiae (“friend of the court”) briefs in state and federal courts, including the United States Supreme Court. They have also been involved in teaching other lawyers how to effectively represent their clients in these cases.
