Unfair Insurance

We represent clients in Texas and, with qualified co-counsel, clients across the United States who have suffered from unfair, bad-faith insurance practices. For more information and for frequently asked questions, please see our other page crookedinsurance.com

We fight insurance companies due to:

  • Refusal to pay
  • Unfair settlements
  • Wrongful denial of insurance benefits or claims
  • Unfair insurance practices

Has your claim been denied under your:

  • Homeowners Insurance
  • Life Insurance
  • Auto Insurance
  • Commercial Insurance
  • Health Insurance
  • Renters Insurance
  • Warranties
  • Other?

If so, you may be entitled to: The value of your claim, including Interest and penalties, or possibly Triple the amount of your claim, Attorney's fees, or Punitive damages.

Have you experienced a delay or denial of insurance benefits? At the Law Firm of Leon and Schulman, we have experience in forcing insurance companies to pay those benefits that rightfully belong to our clients.

We have found that in many instances insurance companies fail to follow laws that govern how insurance companies are supposed to deal with their customers.

It is our responsibility to force these companies to follow state law and pay our clients the money they are legally entitled to receive. If you believe an insurance company is withholding benefits properly due you or is guilty of unfair insurance practices, please request a free consultation so that we may assess the merits of your particular case.
