California Insurance Lawyers: Agent Negligence
An insurance agent's errors or omissions can result in denial of coverage or even cancellation of your insurance policy after a claim — just when you need it most.
At Pillsbury & Levinson, LLP in San Francisco, our attorneys represent clients who were financially harmed by the negligence or misrepresentation of their insurance agents or brokers.
Many brokers and agents are skilled and capable professionals who help individuals and businesses obtain the appropriate amount and type of insurance for their insurance needs. However, because insurance agents are compensated by commission, some agents are willing to cut corners in order to make a sale. The agent may:
- Neglect to explain the terms of a policy completely
- Fail to write a policy that provides adequate coverage
- Forget to send the signed policy to the company
- Fail to advise you of your rights and options
- Include inaccurate information on insurance forms and applications
If you have suffered damages because of insurance agent or broker negligence or incompetence, please contact Pillsbury & Levinson, LLP for experienced legal representation.
Our legal team will listen carefully to you describe your situation, analyze your case, explain the laws involved, and outline your legal options. In some cases, we will seek coverage of a denied claim against the insurance company, agent or both.
