Denver Insurance Bad Faith Attorney
Fighting Auto Insurance Companies for You
An auto insurance company must provide fair and prompt reimbursement in the event of a car accident that causes damages or injuries. Despite signing a legal contract with policyholders that states the insurance company will cover certain losses, some of these companies play hardball when presented with legitimate claims. They may deny the claim, offer an unacceptably low amount, or delay payment, all to preserve profit while disrespecting the policyholder.
If you’ve found yourself in the same situation with your auto insurance provider after being in an accident in Colorado, you should use the services of our Denver insurance bad faith attorney, who is experienced in handling insurance disputes. Tenge Law Firm LLC and Attorney J. Todd Tenge can help you stand up to a stubborn and dishonest insurance company, so you don’t have to face them alone. Wherever and whenever insurance bad faith tactics are used, we’ll be ready to fight against them.
Reach out to our firm today by calling (720) 818-9044. We help clients across Colorado, including in Denver, Boulder, Fort Collins, and more.
Auto Insurance Bad Faith
Colorado law requires auto insurance companies to act in “good faith” when handling your claim, such as the one you file after being in an accident. Insurance carriers must promptly investigate your claim, communicate with you regarding the status of your claim, and either pay your claim or offer an explanation as to why your claim was denied. Failing to meet these basic standards could be considered insurance bad faith.
For example, if you were hit by another driver and file a claim with your auto insurance provider only to receive a denial letter before an insurance adjuster even heard your statements, it could be intentional insurance bad faith.

Types of Disputes & Coverage
Our Denver insurance bad faith team can help if your auto insurance provider:
- Ignored a claim: The insurance company fails to acknowledge or respond to a claim, leaving you in insurance limbo without updates or progress.
- Delayed paying a claim: The insurer intentionally drags out the process of paying a valid claim, causing financial strain and frustration for you.
- Underpaid a claim: The company offers a settlement amount that is significantly less than the actual value of the damages or losses incurred.
- Denied a claim for no legitimate reason: The insurer rejects a valid claim without providing a reasonable explanation or justification, often hoping you will not challenge the decision.
- Made unreasonable demands: The auto insurance company imposes excessive or unnecessary requirements for you to follow, such as asking for irrelevant documentation, to delay or complicate the claims process.
- Failed to investigate the car accident: The insurer neglects to conduct a proper investigation into the accident, which can lead to unfair claim denials or settlements based on incomplete or inaccurate information.
