Breach of Insurance Contracts

Florida Insurance Claim Denial Lawyer Helping the Injured

A long-term disability insurance policy is like a life-ring after a major accident or illness. Without the disability insurance payments, how would the family replace the lost income that the injured family member contributed?

The same can be said for other types of insurance policies — including long-term care insurance policies, life insurance and property insurance. We pay the premiums because it gives us peace of mind to know that the insurance company will come through when we need its help.

It is hard to believe that an insurance company would refuse to pay under an insurance policy — until it happens to you. If you seek legal help from professional attorneys, you can minimize the headaches associated with fighting your insurance company.

At the South Florida law firm of Greenberg & Stone, P.A., we handle all insurance dispute claims on a contingency fee basis. This means that our clients pay no attorneys' fees unless we succeed on their behalf. We have offices in Miami, Palm Beach, Weston and Orlando. Our insurance dispute attorneys, Stewart G. Greenberg and Mark D. Stone. have practiced law in Florida since 1979 and 1986, respectively. Mr. Greenberg and Mr. Stone are each AV-rated* by Martindale-Hubbell. Our law practice emphasizes professionalism and vigorous, ethical advocacy for our clients.

Breach of Contract Claims Against Insurance Companies

We pursue insurance companies that wrongfully deny our clients' claims based on two main legal theories: breach of contract and breach of fiduciary duty. We have had significant success turning the tide for policyholders who thought their insurance companies would never budge from refusing to pay claims.

The types of insurance dispute claims we have handled include:

• Long-term disability insurance: We have represented clients who were denied coverage by their private or employer-provided long-term disability insurance companies. Whether your long-term disability insurance claim was denied outright, or your disability benefits were terminated before you recovered, we can help.
• Long-term care insurance: We represent elderly people and people with debilitating injury or illness who need in-home care, assisted living or rehabilitation care. Did your long-term care insurance company deny your claim? Were you told you do not meet the criteria or are requesting unnecessary services? Get advice and advocacy from compassionate and knowledgeable lawyers.
• Life insurance: Don't submit to the insult if your insurance company wrongfully refuses to pay a life insurance claim because of alleged fraud or misrepresentation. Our sophisticated legal team will conduct an independent investigation and present forceful arguments to the insurance company.
• Property insurance: We help Florida property owners get fair value compensation for their property after losses caused by disasters like fires or hurricanes.
