English term
bad faith lawsuit
English to Spanish
Law/Patents
Law (general)
The reality is that in most cases where the claimant (person making a claim for personal injury) has a herniated disc, he or she will not get the full value for his or her pain and suffering that is described above. Factors that may decrease (lower) the value of your case (and therefore a settlement) are:
- You have a history of working in manual labor jobs (construction worker, etc.). The insurance company may say that your herniated disc is the result of your hard labor and not the accident.
- The insurance company for the at-fault party has high liability insurance limits and is not afraid of a bad faith lawsuit.
- You have a history of working in manual labor jobs (construction worker, etc.). The insurance company may say that your herniated disc is the result of your hard labor and not the accident.

Es decir, entiendo que el que entabla el juicio no actúa de mala fe, sino que acusa a la otra parte de actuar de mala fe.

demanda por acción de mala fe de la compañía aseguradora
'Mala fe' de la empresa aseguradora es un término legal único en la ley de USA y Canadá (ver wikipedia abajo). Al amparo de la ley de la mayor parte de las jurisdicciones de Estados Unidos, las empresa aseguradoras tienen el deber de mostrar buena fe hacia las personas que aseguran. Una empresa puede, para evitar pagar un daño hecho por un accidente, alegar que el accidentado pudo haberse ocasionado el daño resultado de su puesto laboral, por poner un ejemplo.
