We draft and review Insurance Policies and provide legal advisory services to Insurers and Insurance Brokers
Insurance law is the practice of law surrounding insurance, including insurance policies and claims. It involves - regulation of the business of insurance; regulation of the content of insurance policies, especially with regard to consumer policies; and regulation of claim handling wise.
These laws affect the requirements for companies wishing to operate the insurance industry. These laws can vary widely from state to state, but can affect things like ensuring the insurance company will have sufficient liquidity to cover claims in the event of catastrophic events or natural disasters.
Laws related to the content of insurance policies are designed to prevent predatory practices that would essentially let insurers offer worthless or diminished value policies. They also prevent insurers from misleading clauses and titles on policies that would allow an unsophisticated buyer to believe that they are buying one type of insurance but receive another.
These laws affect how insurance companies must respond when a claim is made. They prevent insurance companies from denying claims unreasonably. They also prevent insurance companies, in certain instances, from canceling policies simply for making claims. They also affect how insureds can make claims and what happens if someone attempts to make a fraudulent claim.
