10 Worst Insurance Companies in America?

By Richard Victoria

ADVERTISEMENTS

Earlier this year, the American Association for Justice issued its report naming the "10 Worst Insurance Companies in America." The authors of the report describe the process undertaken to compile this list as follows:

To identify the worst insurance companies for consumers, researchers at the American Association for Justice (AAJ) undertook a comprehensive investigation of thousands of court documents, SEC and FBI records, state insurance department investigations and complaints, news accounts from across the country, and the testimony and depositions of former insurance agents and adjusters. Our final list includes companies across a range of different insurance fields, including homeowners and auto insurers, health insurers, life insurers, and disability insurers.

The report is an interesting read and provides some insight into what some policyholders encounter when making claims with their insurers. Of course, different policyholders may have different experiences and your mileage may vary. Rest assured, however, that insurers are not always looking out for the best interest of their insureds.

At a minimum, the report is worth reviewing if you are in the market for a new policy or making a claim with your insurer. It may even cause you to rethink the placement of your current coverage and assess whether you current policies are really in good and trustworthy hands.
