Insurance fraud is one of two things: either an insured files a false claim seeking compensation for non-existent or exaggerated losses, or an insurer purposely denies a legitimate claim. Most often, it is the former. An insurance fraud lawyer can offer a strong defense against these kinds of allegations.
The Coalition Against Insurance Fraud estimates the cost of insurance fraud to U.S. consumers to be approximately $80 billion a year. Because the problem has become so pervasive, insurance companies have been cracking down on investigations. Currently, 48 states have criminal statutes on insurance fraud.
A conviction for insurance fraud can result in heavy fines and even prison time. If you find yourself accused of insurance fraud, you’ll need experienced legal counsel. That’s where the team at Phillips Law Group comes in.
