Insurance Industry Enters Arson Battle
In any discussion of arson, there are those among us who point indignantly to the insurance industry and say: “There are the real culprits! If they didn’t pay off so quickly on claims, the incidence of arson fires would drop off to nothing.” This statement sounds logical, but it doesn’t take into consideration the not-for-profit arson fires that are set for revenge and even just for kicks—by a psychopath. But beyond this there is something called the “bad faith” doctrine that has plagued the insurance companies for years.
