Farmers Insurance Appeals $5.7M Bad Faith Judgment

Attorney Robert Gianelli was recently featured in an article published on the legal news, information and blog website www.LawCommentary.com. The article described a $5.7 million judgment levied against Farmers Insurance Company for bad faith conduct after the company refused to cover the full value of its policyholder’s claim for injuries suffered in a car crash with an uninsured driver. Mr. Gianelli explained how punitive damages are often appropriate in instances of insurance bad faith and also discussed some of the challenges Farmers will face as it attempts to appeal the jury verdict.
