Insurance companies are legally obligated to act in good faith when dealing with their clients. Unfortunately, many insurers fail to do this, resulting in bad faith allegations. In recent years, however, several US states have taken measures to reduce the hurdles in establishing insurance bad faith claims. This has resulted in better protection for policyholders and an increased risk of litigation to ensure companies’ accountability.
