You can sue anyone for anything; the question is can you win.
If you have fulfilled all of your contractural obligations regarding a claim, including making sure your policy had not lapsed due to nonpayment of premiums and making sure that all the necessary claims paperwork includes all the required details and is properly submitted, and yet the insurance company continues not to honor their side of the contract, whether they have simply delayed your payment for an unreasonable period of time or if they gave you a reason for denying your claim which you proved to be untrue, filing a lawsuit against them may be the only way to collect what they owe you.
Immediately start logging everything that has to do with the claim and your attempts to collect. Include dates and times. It may be invaluable to have recordings of your encounters with the insurance company. Keep in mind that you may be legally required to inform them when you are making a recording. I think a judge can honor a defendant's request to disregard any illegally obtained evidence. Visit a web site like FindLaw to learn whatever else you need to know. Brainstorm every question you could possibly think of that you might be asked in court, and make sure you have the answers to every one of them when you enter the court room.
yes. you can sue an at fault driver if his insurance company refuses to pay your claim. it would not be proper to sue the insurance company.
If you're talking about his or her insurance company, then probably not since it's customary for the insurance company to get subrogation rights in exchange for payment. The insurance company can certainly sue you but they don't always do so.OTOH, if your insurance made the payment then absolutely not unless your insurance company is incompetent. Insurers always make claimants waive all future legal remedies arising from that claim before paying. The claim is considered settled in full.
Usually in a bad faith insurance claim the insurance company is in the wrong. A bad faith claim is when an insurance company fails to pay out what was promised on the claim. More than likely you could sue the insurance company and have a chance at winning your case.
Yes, usually your first option is to file a claim with your states insurance department.
In the US, at least, the answer is yes. You can sue just about anybody for just about anything.A good resource for you would be your own insurance agent. Ask him/her about how to get an insurance company to respond to the claim.
It is up to the insurance company to seek damages, not you.
The tow company is responsible for damage they did to the vehicle, if they claim they didn't do it you have to prove it and make a claim/sue them, otherwise you need to claim it on your insurance.
then sue for delay of action!
No, since the insurance company would have been damaged by the act, not you. You have no standing to sue. On the other hand, your insurance company can sue- and can pursue criminal charges.
Not sure what you are asking. If you had no insurance and caused the accident you are responsible for paying for the other driver's damage and injuries. If the other driver was at fault, you are entitled to payment for your damages and injuries from either the driver/owner of the other car, or their insurance company. If you had your own collision insurance, you could make the claim with your company and let them worry about collecting, but if you don't, you will need to file the claim with the other party's insurer or hire a lawyer and sue them.
It depends on why they didn't pay the claim. If you have the coverage and followed the requirements, like making a police report, cooperating with the insurance company as well as the police then you should have no problem with a claim, if it was in fact a theft. Otherwise you can always sue the company or file a complaint with your state department of insurance if you feel you were denied coverage you paid for.
well all you have to do call the obudsmen and speak to one of their advisors.
