Denver Lawyer: Bad Faith Claims

We are currently accepting a limited number of cases against American Family Insurance Company. You may have recently received a notice of the Court's ruling and class certification order which has prompted your search for legal advise.

We currently represent individuals with bad faith claims against American Family on a reduced contingency basis. A great deal of the work in these cases has been done in the class action that our bad faith lawyers designed and filed and in other cases that have been tried. We want to make sure that individuals that were harmed due to the conduct of this company are treated fairly and not overcharged since so much work has already been done. You will not be quoted a 50% contingency fee; your fee will reflect that substantial work has already been done in other cases.

If you have a claim against American Family Insurance for bad faith, contact our office. We will share information about the case and your rights. We will work with you to make sure that you are fairly compensated and that any legal fees are not excessive.

Case History and Orders

Our work against American Family Insurance Company began when we were approached by lawyers who were interested in having Beth Klein design a successful class action against American Family for enhanced PIP or no-fault benefits. Numerous attempts had been made to certify a class action of this nature, but all previous attempts had failed.

On June 28, 2004, the Class Action Complaint was prepared and filed by Klein | Frank, P.C. You can read a copy of the American Family Class Action Complaint drafted by our bad faith law firm here:

The action was filed because from July 1, 1992 to January 29, 2001, American Family uniformly and systematically failed to underwrite Complying Extended PIP Policies and failed to make offers of Extended PIP Benefits as mandated by C.R.S. 10-4-710 and Colorado case law. The Class Action was designed so that all applicable policies would be enhanced and that American Family would have to comply with the law.

American Family tried to have the case dismissed based upon the fact that other cases had failed to get class certification. This firm prepared extensive briefing, and on October 7, 2004, Judge Sandstead rule in our favor.
