Frequently Asked Questions Clients Ask

A well-meaning question we often hear is, “What qualifies as a legitimate insurance claim dispute?” In Florida, any claim where your insurer fails to pay, significantly delays, undervalues, or arbitrarily denies a covered benefit may be grounds for dispute—and sometimes even a bad-faith lawsuit. Barak Law Group specializes in handling these cases, helping clients navigate complex policy language, appraisal processes, and negotiation strategies.

Another common concern: “How long will the resolution process take?” Every case is unique, but typical dispute timelines can stretch from a few weeks for negotiation to several months if litigation becomes necessary. Barak Law Group’s transparent communication ensures you’re always informed about progress and options.

Finally, many ask about cost: “Are there fees upfront?” The firm offers free initial consultations, and most insurance dispute cases are handled on a contingency-fee basis, meaning you only pay if there’s a recovery. That arrangement aligns incentives and removes financial barriers, allowing you to focus on getting what you’re entitled to.

Questions People Ask Before Hiring

When prospective clients reach out, common questions go beyond policy details:

• “How will you value my damages?”
  Barak Law Group conducts thorough assessments, examining repair bids, medical documentation, and expert testimony to determine appropriate settlement value.

• “Will you take my insurer to court?”
  Most cases start with demand letters and negotiation. But if the insurer remains unreasonable, Barak doesn’t hesitate to initiate lawsuits—and has the litigation skills to follow through effectively.

• “What timeline should I anticipate?”
  While each case varies, negotiations can wrap up in 1–3 months. However, litigation may take 6 to 18 months, depending on court schedules and case complexity. The firm keeps clients in the loop every step of the way, ensuring they know exactly where they stand.

Understanding Insurance Bad Faith: What It Means and How Barak Law Group Can Help

Insurance companies are legally obligated to handle your claim in good faith. But what happens when they don't? Many clients are unaware that “bad faith” practices by insurers are not only unethical—they're potentially actionable under Florida law. Bad faith can include delaying payment without cause, misrepresenting policy terms, failing to investigate a claim properly, or denying a valid claim outright. Barak Law Group has deep experience holding insurers accountable for these tactics. According to Barak Law Group, if you've experienced long delays, shifting explanations, or poor communication from your provider, it might not just be poor service—it could be a breach of their legal duty.

Barak’s team evaluates these scenarios carefully and can advise if your case involves violations under Florida Statute § 624.155, which provides consumers the right to seek damages for insurer misconduct. With a thorough understanding of both statutory protections and insurance company playbooks, Barak Law Group gives clients a significant edge in pursuing full and fair compensation, not just for the claim, but sometimes for additional damages and legal fees as well.
