If you were covered by Esurance at the time of your truck accident, you should be compensated accordingly for your losses. After all, that is the purpose of insurance and why all motorists are required to have coverage.
Unfortunately, due to a variety of reasons, Esurance sometimes denies claims. Yet, you have legal options. You can partner with a lawyer who can pursue what you need. You can also sue the at-fault party directly for your medical bills and other related expenses.
There Are Many Reasons Why Esurance May Deny Your Accident Claim
There are many reasons why some insurance claims are denied. Possible reasons for your claim’s denial may comprise:
- The insurance company believes you caused the accident.
- The insurer says you filed your claim too late.
- The insurance company made a judgment or clerical error.
- Your damages exceeded the liable policy’s limits.
We trust insurance companies to manage our claims in good faith. Yet, this doesn’t always happen. Some insurers go above and beyond to deny claimants compensation. Still, claimants have options when this happens.

ClientYour Claim Doesn’t Have To End With A Denial
After denying your truck accident claim, Esurance must give a written reason why. This allows you to address the issue and clear up misconceptions about your case. For instance, Esurance may deny your claim if you don’t have enough supporting evidence. Here, you can gather any information that could bolster your claim.
Esurance cannot simply receive your claim and refuse to acknowledge it. This would constitute a bad faith insurance practice, possibly warranting legal action.
You Can Sue The At-Fault Party
Many truck accident claims don’t require litigation. That’s because injured claimants generally resolve their cases via insurance negotiations. However, this isn’t the case for everyone. If Esurance denies your claim, you can sue the at-fault party for damages.
This involves:
- Filing your case within Louisiana’s statute of limitations
- Presenting evidence of your losses
- Taking depositions and exchanging evidence
- Proving fault, negligence, and liability
- Applying Louisiana civil law to your case
- Asserting your case’s cause
Pursuing a lawsuit can quickly prove overwhelming––especially if you’re dealing with serious injuries. To make matters easier, you may consider consulting with an injury lawyer. They can assess your options and seek what you need.
