There's no shortage of horror stories about insurance companies that routinely refuse to pay businesses and individuals for legitimate losses. While some states are increasingly pursuing stiff penalties for insurance companies that operate in bad faith, The Lanier Law Firm is responding with the formation of a new Bad Faith Insurance Practice Group led by firm attorney Phillip Sanov of Houston. The Bad Faith Insurance Practice Group helps individuals and commercial property owners across the country in non-payment disputes with insurance carriers based on claims arising from storms, fires and other natural disasters.
"When you call Houston home, you become intimately familiar with the effects of natural disasters and the insurance mess often left in their wake," says Mark Lanier, founder of The Lanier Law Firm. "Our new practice group will work to help businesses and individuals get back on their feet after a disaster."
The firm has already helped thousands of individuals and businesses recover insurance reimbursements from Hurricane Ike, not to mention claims involving damage from earthquakes, mudslides, forest fires and other disasters.
"After paying premiums for years, you expect an insurance company to stand behind you when disaster strikes," says Mr. Sanov. "The sad truth is that most people and businesses I talk with have been wrongfully denied, unreasonably delayed or vastly underpaid for their insurance claims."
