Insurance Bad Faith: Demand Letter
A demand letter setting out your Insurance Bad Faith claim, the legal basis for it, and what you want the other side to do about it.
Written to be persuasive to the recipient's lawyer and safe to attach as an exhibit if the matter is later filed. Includes a deadline, a preservation demand, and a settlement window. Prepared by an MC Law attorney and reviewed before it leaves the firm, so the position you take before filing is one you can hold afterwards.
Frequently asked questions
The fee covers review of the documents and correspondence you provide, the finished document, ready to send or to hold, and a short written note on the risks and the recommended next step. It is fixed at this scope: up to 4 pages, and up to 5 attachments. 2 rounds of revisions are included. If your matter falls outside that scope we tell you before starting and quote the difference — we do not bill past a flat fee without agreeing it first.
3 to 5 business days from a complete set of instructions, plus time for the 2 rounds of revisions included in the fee. If you are working to a court deadline or a closing date, tell us when you order and we will confirm in writing whether we can meet it before you commit.
$1,800 is $325/hour × 5.5 hours — the time this deliverable takes in an ordinary insurance bad faith matter, at the firm's standard rate. Because it is a flat fee, the risk of the work running long sits with the firm: you pay $1,800 whether it takes us the estimate or twice it.
Third-party costs are never inside a flat fee and are passed through at cost, never marked up: court and agency filing fees, court reporter and transcript charges, expert witness fees, search vendor and e-discovery hosting charges, process server fees, and travel.
A short description of the dispute and where it currently stands, the key documents, contracts, and correspondence, the parties involved and any deadlines already running, and the case caption and court, if a matter has been filed. Send what you have — if something is missing we will tell you what else we need before the turnaround clock starts.
