Bad Faith Law and Insurance Coverage

 

With the recent changes and volatility in the insurance industry, the necessity for clients to have qualified counsel experienced in bad faith and insurance coverage is a must. At McIntosh, Sawran, Peltz, & Cartaya, P.A., we have been requested over the years to provide coverage opinions for carriers, file declaratory judgment actions, and represent carriers in both first party and third party extra-contractual matters. Managing Partner Douglas McIntosh oversees the firm’s practice area in this regard. Mr. McIntosh has written and lectured extensively on bad faith and insurance coverage issues in the defense community, and is frequently asked to serve as an expert or coverage counsel for carriers in large exposure, bad faith cases. This practice area thrives with the assistance of the firm’s appellate division, whose expertise in legal research and writing creates the work product often required in high stakes matters.

The firm also possesses expertise in matters involving ERISA litigation and complex life or health insurance disputes. The firm’s fluency in Spanish has aided in discovery abroad and in the review of foreign contracts and insurance policies.
