Re: emotional Distress
Yes, however it would be a very slim factual situation that would give rise to such a cause of action. First, there is no such thing as bad faith with first party insurers. Second, you need to prove causation as well as medical evidence of the distress.
Contact me to discuss the problems you are having with your underlying case. I am an experienced attorney and confident of serving your legal needs.
