We Are Not Afraid to Go to Trial When Needed
Sometimes, the insurance company refuses to negotiate in good faith, refusing to agree with our version of the events that led to your insurance claim. In this type of situation, we may recommend that we take the case to trial to try to recover the insurance payment.
Some insurance payment attorneys in Alexandria may try to avoid going to trial at all costs. They do not want to put in the time and effort required to prepare for a trial.
We do not follow this strategy. We keep our focus on helping you win the highest possible settlement in your insurance claim case. If this means going to trial, we are ready to represent you in court. Understand, however, that the final decision in how we go forward will belong to you.

ClientWhy Is the Insurance Company Treating Me Unfairly?
When speaking with clients who are facing a situation where an insurance company is denying a claim, they often wonder why the insurer is acting this way.
Sometimes an insurer denies a claim, and this action has justification. Perhaps you believe you have a type of coverage in your policy, but you misunderstood. This would represent a legal denial of a claim.
Understanding When Insurance Companies Are Behaving Unethically
Other times, though, the insurance company is behaving unethically. Some insurers attempt to deny valid policy claims to simply increase their profit levels. The less money they can pay in claims, the greater level of profit they can collect for their stakeholders.
If the insurance company is purposely trying to keep you from receiving the payout you deserve, it may try a few different techniques, including by claiming:
- Policy violations: The insurer may accuse you of violating the terms of your insurance policy, allowing it to deny your claim. If you believe you did not commit a violation, we can present your side of the case to the insurance company.
- Prior injuries: The insurer may deny your health claim because it says an injury you are reporting is actually an older injury that it has no obligation to cover. We can present information on your behalf that shows the two injuries are not related.
- Flood damage: If you do not have a flood insurance policy from a private insurer or from the National Flood Insurance Program, you do not have coverage for flooding. However, insurers should cover water damage from wind and rain. We can find facts to help you prove flooding did not cause your claim, but wind and rain did.
- Incorrect information on forms: The insurer may accuse you of submitting information on your claim form that is incorrect, causing it to deny your claim. If you made an honest mistake, we believe this is bad faith behavior on the insurer’s part. We can try to restore your claim.
- Deductible limits not met: If your policy has varying deductible limits, the insurance company may mistakenly apply your claim to a high deductible portion of the policy. If you believe it should apply to a lower deductible portion and you should have a settlement payment, we can present the facts that show this.
I thank God for Digger & David. I don’t know what we would have done if it hadn’t have been for them.

When you are facing unfair behavior from your insurer, we will stand with you. We work hard on behalf of our clients to show their side of the story and try to win the claims they deserve.
You also can file a complaint with the Louisiana Department of Insurance (LDI). By reporting the unfair actions of the insurance company, you hopefully can prevent other insurance clients from having the same problems with receiving the claim payments they deserve.
The reassurance from Digger and his staff gave me that renewed hope that it’s going to be okay down the road.
