Our firm handles Bad Faith Insurance claims specifically related to Personal Injury claims.

– Medical or dental health insurance claim denials
– Health insurance billing or coverage disputes unrelated to personal injury
Health insurance is arguably the most important type of insurance because people use it to afford the exorbitant costs of medical care. This type of insurance protects your life, not your property like homeowner’s or auto insurance. After paying expensive premiums, you expect your health insurance to rightfully pay your claims, especially if you are already dealing with the stress and anxiety of a health crisis. The Colorado health insurance bad faith lawyers of Cannon Law are here to help ensure you receive the care and payment for your claims you deserve.
How to File a Health Insurance Claim
Often, your doctor’s office or other medical provider will handle your claim for you. However, if they do not, contact your insurance provider. Depending on your insurance company, you may be able to file your claim online or by phone. Provide your insurer with all of the relevant documentation, including your medical bills, doctor’s notes, and test results.

What Our Clients Are Saying About Us
My Case Was Taken Care Of
“Sam and his team worked to make sure every aspect of my case was taken care of and that I was informed the whole way through. I know nothing about law or how the process works, so he explained everything to me in a way that was easy for us non-lawyers to understand. I can’t recommend them enough and everything they helped me with over the course of my 15 month case. I’d highly recommend!”

They Really Set the Standard For Legal Help
“Sam Cannon is what you want in a lawyer. I’ve used them a couple of times now and each time I call, Sam’s always shown a level of dedication that’s beyond impressive. In fact, he often seems to be more passionate about my case than I was, which was refreshing because it’s rare to see that kind of care these days.
More than just a good person, Sam and company are excellent at what they do. Professional and, more importantly, timely. I’ve never not had a call or message returned within 24 hours. They really set the standard for legal help. If you find yourself in a bind, this is the firm to call.”

“Sam was my attorney when I got into my car accident and he was the best! He made it very comfortable and told and explained everything that was going on and what will happen! He was very sympathetic and showed that he really cared about me and was concerned about my health issues! I am very thankful for everything he has done for me and for my family. If anyone that I know needed help and needed an attorney, Sam would be the first person I would recommend! ”

Knowledgeable and Efficient
“Sam Cannon is very knowledgeable and efficient. He really cares about the little guy.

“Sam Cannon is an excellent attorney. He truly cares about what he is doing and about the people he represents, which I found very rarely when looking for legal representation for my father-in-law.

What Is Health Insurance Bad Faith?
Insurance bad faith occurs when an insurance company fails to uphold its contractual duty to pay a valid claim under an applicable insurance policy. In health insurance bad faith, this type of claim arises when your medical insurance company unreasonably denies or delays your claim. While any type of insurance provider may potentially commit insurance bad faith, health insurance bad faith is particularly harmful because victims may not receive the medical care they need when the insurance company wrongfully denies claims. Individuals may suffer catastrophic injuries, serious complications, or even death while they wait for the matter to be resolved. Denied or delayed payments for claims are the most common reasons for health insurance bad faith claims.
Examples of Bad Faith Insurance Practices
- Failing to fully investigate a claim before denying it
- Conducting an inadequate investigation
- Delaying the handling of a claim for no reason
- Delaying payment of a claim with no justification
- Refusing to pay a valid claim
- Denying a claim for no reason
- Refusing requests for documentation of a claim
- Making unreasonable settlements
- Attempting to change policy language for an existing policy
If you believe your health insurance claim was denied in bad faith, reach out to Cannon Law for help.
