How does the current economic crisis affect my insurance claim?

Insurance companies typically make a portion of their profits from investing the premiums paid by their policyholders. Insurance companies invest in the stock market and other markets that historically offer a good rate of return. Consequently, when the return on their investments suffers, so does their ability and willingness to pay claims.

Along with other factors, what this means to the claimant is that insurance companies are now, more than ever, tightening their belts and disputing even more claims. So, when researching what law firm will best represent you, make sure you know that the firm understands the big picture and is willing and prepared to fight hard to maximize your claim.
