For many people, a life insurance policy gives peace of mind that loved ones will be taken care of financially. However, some life insurance companies try to avoid large life insurance payouts by abusing and misusing contestability clauses in life insurance contracts.

What Is A Contestability Clause?

When a person purchases a life insurance policy, there is a two-year time window after the policy goes into effect during which the insurer can investigate and/or contest life insurance claims. After the initial two years, insurance companies are not allowed to deny life insurance claims unless the insured specifically violates terms of the contract. The contestability period exists to prevent people from committing insurance fraud by lying about a medical condition or medical history simply to receive approval. Once the contestability period ends, insurers must pay out on valid life insurance claims..

How Do Insurance Companies Misuse Contestability Clauses?

In an effort to mitigate payouts, some life insurance companies unfairly contest and deny life insurance claims alleging the insured deceptively misled the insurer in order to obtain a policy. Insurance companies sometimes deny life insurance claims without citing any evidence of insurance fraud. This practice of wrongfully denying rightful life insurance claims within the contestability period is wrong, and beneficiaries have a right to take legal action to obtain the funds they are owed under the terms of the policy.

What To Do If Your Life Insurance Claim Is Contested

If you are the beneficiary of a life insurance claim and your claim is contested, you need to immediately contact a life insurance contestability attorney. Not all insurance companies are forthright about conducting investigations, so if your claim is being delayed, this could be sign the company is preparing to contest and/or deny your claim. Speak to one of our experienced life insurance claim lawyers as early in the process as possible to help protect your policy and your financial future.
