Princeton Co. agrees to pay $20 million in insurance bad faith case.

In 2001, a road worker in Philadelphia, PA was left a quadriplegic after being hit by a drunk driver that had just left a tavern insured by Princeton Insurance Co. Although a jury awarded the injured man $75 million at the time of the crash, it was never paid due to the tavern having an insufficient policy limit of only $1 million. Princeton was sued for bad faith, accused of failing to negotiate a settlement within the policy’s limits after the initial verdict. To settle the insurance bad faith lawsuit, the company agreed to pay $20 million to the claimant. Learn more

The vast majority of lawsuits against disability insurers are settled in conjunction with confidentiality agreements. However, between 1992 and 2002, an estimated 10,000 lawsuits have been brought against the nation's leading disability insurer for denying claims in bad faith.

Bad faith lawsuits involve cases in which an insurer wrongfully and improperly denies coverage to the insured. Since an insurance policy is a contract between the two parties, the agreement obligates both the insurance company and the insured to act in "good faith." When one of the parties acts in a deceptive or improper way, such as when a company withholds the benefits of the policy it owes to the insured, it is termed "bad faith."
