What is an Insurance Class Action Lawsuit?

In an insurance class action, one or more policyholders sues an insurance company on behalf of other policyholders who have suffered a similar fate. Often, insurance class actions are brought against insurance companies based on a uniform practice in denying certain types of claims. Other types of insurance class actions are based upon a fraud committed by the insurance company regarding premiums, policy benefits, etc.

When to File a Class Action Lawsuit

Many insurance companies have a history of garnering profits through unfair claims denials and sales. It is common for the individual policyholders to be harmed by this unfair practice but be unable to sue their insurance provider due to the relative costs of an attorney compared to the financial grievance of the individual policyholder. When multiple policyholders have the same grievance, the best course of action is to file a class action lawsuit against the insurance company.

Class action lawsuits empower you to find qualified, experienced legal representation without shouldering the cost by yourself. Class action lawsuits also even out the playing field between individuals and powerful insurance corporations backed by huge legal teams.
