Extra-Contractual Issues

At NLdH, we represent a wide variety of insurers in first- and third-party insurance and bad faith matters, as well as other extra-contractual issues. When lawsuits are brought against our clients, we bring a high level of energy, as well as cutting edge technology, to their defense.

Furthermore, we are one of the few law firms with attorneys who are willing to take action in reverse bad faith cases. We assist insurance companies in the investigation and prosecution of parties suspected of committing insurance fraud. We stand up for the rights of our clients and offer them the protection they are entitled to.

Our lawyers are available to provide extra-contractual consulting services to assist our clients with working proactively to prevent insurance bad faith disputes from arising in the first place. We provide extensive training programs for our clients’ claims teams. The result: increased customer satisfaction and a reduction in mishandled files.

Our law firm offers services for a wide range of extra-contractual issues:

  • The standard of care owed in insurance bad faith cases
  • The scope of permissible discovery and attorney-client privilege
  • Policyholder misrepresentation and its effect on coverage
  • Insurance bad faith claims arising out of UM/UIM disputes
  • Medical benefits
  • Disability claims
  • Life policies
  • Healthcare coverage
  • Homeowner claims
  • Personal auto policies
  • Duty to defend and indemnify
  • Excess coverage
  • Personal injury
  • Reverse bad faith claims

Insurance industry clients have good reason to turn to us. They know they want a law firm that is skilled not only in the laws that impact their business, but in the business of insurance itself. At NLdH, they find attorneys who have more than 30 years of experience in the insurance industry, experience that includes years spent working in positions ranging from claims adjuster to branch manager.

NLdH is proud of the reputation we have earned throughout the insurance industry. Learn more about our record of success.
