An insured person has the right to expect certain treatment (“good faith”) from their insurance company. Thus, when an insurance company violates the terms of an insurance agreement, it may be accused of acting in “bad faith.” The insured individual may then be able to sue the insurance company. Examples of bad faith include unreasonable interpretations of coverage, delays in processing claims, or threats against the insured.

Construction defects are errors that devalue a property. The defects may stem from problems with “design, workmanship, and materials,” including inadequate firewalls, poor insulation, faulty drainage, termite infestations, and other issues. Another common type of construction defect is to leave a building susceptible to landslide or earth settlement, which could result in substantial damages for the property owner — both for harm to the structure and for potential human injury.

Copyright infringement involves the use of the intellectual property of another person or company without their legal consent. Illegally reproducing, performing, or making similar or derivative versions of a property are all violations of its copyright. Similarly, trademark infringement consists of violating the rights of a person or company that has registered a trademark for their property. A violation may include using the actual trademark, or using a too-similar trademark for a comparable or identical product.
