Good Faith Claims, Bad Faith Claims: What Adjusters Should Know

Overview

Insurance protects policyholders by paying claims for covered losses. However, claims can be denied, delayed, or mishandled due to various reasons, including adjuster errors or flawed company policies. Mishandled claims may lead to bad faith suits, where insurers might have to pay the original claim plus additional damages. This course helps adjusters understand and avoid actions that could result in bad faith claims.
