The commonly understand meaning is that you give your money to a big giant company and when you have an emergency, the insurance company gives you back your money, plus enough additional money to cover the emergency. Sounds like a good deal . . . right?   It's only a good deal if the insurance company complies with its side of the bargain. Unfortunately, many insurance companies take your money, invest it, and think of a million reasons not to give it back to you when you need it most.  That is why there are strict regulations and laws to protect you from unfair insurance practices.   Disputes with insurance companies  are some of the most frustrating experiences an individual can have. Usually, the insurance dispute arises at the worst possible time, when you have just suffered a tragedy.   Insurance companies have millions of dollars and high powered attorneys to fight any insurance claim they choose to fight. Only an  equally smart and aggressive insurance attorney  who knows how to fight back can protect you.   The best way to get the settlement you are entitled to from an insurance company is by producing tangible evidence that supports your claim. You would think that the insurance company would be on your side during a tragedy. But, typically, the insurance company becomes the adversary and you end up fighting the equivalent of a miniature trial to get what you are entitled to.
