Business Insurance Denial

Part of doing business is protecting yourself and your business from liability, catastrophe and other unfortunate events. You purchase insurance and depend on it to be there when you need it most.

Business owners insure their operations for all kinds of events:

• A customer falls and is injured on your property.
• A fire destroys your place of business.
• An employee sues for sexual harassment.
• A supplier sues for breach of contract.
• A hurricane flattens your building.
• A partner or other key person dies or leaves the operation.

When the unfortunate happens, business owners rightfully expect their insurance claims to be paid promptly and properly. Instead, many will receive a business insurance denial letter in place of a check.

In the Business of Denying Claims

Insurance companies are businesses that increase their profits by minimizing payment of insurance claims. Sometimes it seems they are in the business of denying claims, rather than living up to their obligations to policyholders. Insurers may send a claimant a business insurance denial letter as a ploy, just to see if you will take no for an answer.

Don't do it.

If you have a valid claim, your insurance company owes you money. If they refuse to pay your claim and send a business insurance denial letter instead, they are acting in bad faith.
