When a moment of crisis leaves you or your business in a vulnerable state, you anticipate that your insurance company will be on your side.

Insurance Dispute Legal Services in Illinois

Our team has assisted numerous Illinois individuals, professionals, and businesses in resolving complex insurance coverage disputes. These conflicts can take many forms, each requiring a unique approach

Types of Insurance Disputes Handled by Our Chicago Attorneys:

  • “First-Party Property Insurance Claims. Insureds, like you, purchase first party insurance coverage to insure against loss or damage, but sometimes the insurance companies delay and don’t pay when a loss occurs or damage is sustained. Some examples of first party property insurance policies include the following:
    • (1) Property, Fire and Casualty policies which protect against damage to property from fire, lightening, windstorms, tornadoes, and similar types of disasters;
    • (2) Life Insurance policies which pay out a set sum of money either on the death of the policyholder or after a set period;
    • (3) Title Insurance policies which protect lenders and property owners from financial loss sustained from defects in title to real estate;
    • (4) Cyber Insurance policies which cover a variety of expenses associated with data breaches;
    • (5) Product Recall Insurance policies which cover expenses associated with recalling a product from the market;
    • (6) Sureties and Bonds which guaranties the performance of a particular activity or transaction.

When your insurance company refuses to pay or delays payment to you for damage or a covered loss, you may need legal assistance to overcome this. Our team can help you recover proceeds for these types of claims which are referred to as first-party insurance claims. We can also assist you with legal action involving bad faith insurance company litigation that arise out of the insurance company’s vexatious and unreasonable delay or refusal to pay a covered claim.

  • Third-Party Liability Insurance Claims. When you are sued by an individual or an organization, you may be entitled to a defense from your insurance company to defend against the lawsuit and if there is a settlement or a judgment you may be entitled to coverage for those amounts as well. When an insurance company refuses to provide a defense or pay a covered claim, the results can be financially catastrophic. We can guide you through the third-party liability claims process, help you receive the benefits and money due under your insurance, and if necessary, file a lawsuit to collect the benefits and money due under your policy.
  • Comprehensive Support for Fire Damage Claims. Claims involving fire damage, as noted above are first party insurance claims, can be particularly complex and require precise attention to detail. Insurance companies will sometimes attempt to exploit insurance policy loopholes or leverage an investigation to justify a denial of coverage. We can guide you through each step of the fire claims process and work to ensure you efficiently get the financial support you are entitled to under your homeowners or business insurance policy, and if necessary, file a lawsuit to collect the benefits and money due under your policy.
  • Guidance on BIPA Claims and Insurance Coverage. Illinois has enacted one of the strictest biometric data protection laws in the country, and a recent Supreme Court decision has opened the door to employees and customers pursuing legal action against their employers for any minor statutory violation. As a result, companies that collect, handle or store biometric data run the risk of having to defend against these class action lawsuits that can result in substantial settlements. This exposure, however, may be covered under a commercial liability insurance policy. However, because of the evolving nature and relative newness of BIPA claims, many insurance companies are choosing to narrowly interpret their insurance policies to deny coverage for their insureds. As a result, many insureds are being forced to defend themselves and pay settlements even though their insurance policies potentially cover these claims. Our Law firm can assist your business in navigating these types of disputes.
