In Virginia (and in most, if not all, states) there is an insurance bureau (http://www.scc.virginia.gov/division/boi/) to which you can file a complaint if you feel your claim was wrongly denied. Theoretically, they provide some regulation of the insurance industry and protect consumers to some extent.
Many insurance companies will denial claims for pre-existing conditions. You have a right to appeal all claims. You should call your company first to see why the clam was denied.
If you claim is denied, you can try and appeal it. You will only be given workmen's comp is the injury happened on the job.
Please give me more information, and I'm sure I can help. Facts of loss? Exact reason they denied your claim? They must give you the reason that your claim was denied, or that you were found neglient. You can file with your company then they can arbitrate the claim for a decision, you can contact the dept of insurance for your state. You can file suit (small claims if under the limit), if you secure a judgment against their insured they will have to pay, (barring any appeals of course), but need to know the reason for denial, to be of real help to you.
You may be able to but it isn't very likely.
yes
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.
When applying for life insurance you need to always answer the applications correctly and honestly or a claim may be denied. If you purchase new life insurance you do not need to go back to your already in force insurance company and advise them.
A claim is a liability on part of the insurance company. If a customer makes a claim it means that the insurance company has to pay the customer for the amount is eligible to claim and hence it is a expenditure on the balance sheets of the insurance company.
If they denied that claim for cause, such as fraud, then there is nothing you can do. If they did not have cause, you can try contacting the department of insurance in your state. That is of course, as long as you had comphrensive coverage on the policy. If you did not have coverage, they do not have to pay for anything.
Under normal circumstances, no. A life insurance company will pay the proceeds to the named beneficiary.
That's not very likely. The insurance company does not file your claim, they accept your claim notice from you. You have to file your claim with the company, not the other way around.
An insurance denial attorney will fight for you, should your claim be denied by your insurance carrier.
