An insurance company is not allowed to simply\u00a0<a href=\"\/Cancellation-of-a-Policy\/\">cancel a policy<\/a> out of the blue. Purchasing an insurance policy forms a contract between\u00a0you and your insurance company. There are duties of the company along\u00a0with the consumer when it comes to acting in good faith and following\u00a0the terms of the agreement. Wrongful termination of a policy happens all\u00a0too often and it is important to seek help if this happens to you. Get\u00a0in contact with a\u00a0<strong>Texas insurance bad faith lawyer<\/strong> from our firm today if you need representation.<\/p>\n<p>There are three ways that an insurance company can go about cancelling a policy, including:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Rescission: When your insurance company voids your policy back to the beginning.\u00a0Your money will be returned to you and you will not have coverage.<\/li>\n<li>Cancellation: When your insurance company chooses to terminate a policy\u00a0prior to the date of expiration.<\/li>\n<li>Nonrenewal: When your insurance company terminates a policy at the time\u00a0of expiration.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>An insurance company is able to cancel a policy within the first 60 days for just about any reason. After 60 days have passed there are few reasons that your insurance company can cancel your policy. One reason is if you do not pay the premium by the time it is due. Another reason would be if you obtained the insurance policy using methods of fraud or misrepresentation. Lastly, the insurance company can cancel your policy if there is an increase in the risk that they had accepted in the beginning.<\/p>\n<p>To properly cancel a policy, the company has to send a written notice explaining\u00a0their reasons for the cancellation. You are able to appeal the cancellation\u00a0if you would like.
