Anyone hire attorney sue homeowner insurance company?

[Account Closed]

My friend has a water loss and damages in a rental property. The adjustor came and had estimate already. No injury. But the insurance company finding all different excuses to delay my friend’s claim payment for 3 month already. Still receive zero penny now. My friend want to hire an attorney to sue the company for insurance bad faith act. Has anyone done it before? Any attorney recommend? Thank you

 You may want to get a public adjuster involved.  They are essentially a liaison between you and the insurance company.  I hired one for a house fire a few years ago, they increased my claim by over 150% of what the adjuster originally gave me and helped me throughout the process including the coordination of payment.  They charged a commission but it was well worth it since they increased the claim about and did all the work for me
