Episode #77 - The Myth of the Bad Faith Boogeyman

Send us a text

Not every denied claim is bad faith. Not every mistake is a lawsuit waiting to happen. So why does it sometimes feel like “bad faith” is lurking around every corner?

In this episode, Chantal and Heather Blevins (The Insurance Rebel) tackle the myths and realities of bad faith in insurance claims. They break down what bad faith really means, why the definition changes depending on the state, and how adjusters can protect themselves with strong documentation, timely communication, and clear reasoning.

You’ll hear stories from the field, the dangers of relying too much on AI or “black box” tools, and why emotions—both yours and the claimant’s—can turn a routine claim into a reputational nightmare. Most importantly, we’ll talk about what’s just hot air…and what really puts you at risk.

🎧 Tune in to cut through the noise, learn the real red flags, and walk away with practical strategies to keep your claims in good faith.
