Unafraid to Show Our Teeth
Gunn Law Group, P.A. is on a mission to take power away from insurance companies, large corporations, and healthcare institutions and put it back into the hands of the people of Florida. Our law firm is proud to provide aggressive representation to the wrongfully injured in Tampa, Odessa, Lutz, and beyond. Wherever an insurer breaks their promise to a policyholder or a medical group causes catastrophic harm to a patient instead of healing them, we will be there to fight for what’s right.
We are not a law firm that solely relies on scaring the opposition with our steadfast demeanors, though. We back up our reputation with real results for real people. Throughout our decades of collective legal experience, our Florida catastrophic injury, brain damage, and wrongful death lawyers have been able to secure millions of dollars in compensation for our clients, both through settlements and verdicts. It is through our dedication, focus, and tenacity that we have been able to solidify the Gunn Law Group, P.A. name among insurers. When they see that we are on the other side of a personal injury claim, they know they have to think twice and tread lightly, or else risk going head-to-head with one of Florida’s fiercest law firms in court.

-
How Long Do I Have to Bring a Claim or Suit?The statutes of limitations in Florida varies depending on the type of case you need to file. For example, personal injury claims are usually limited to four years, starting at the date of the injury or accident. Medical malpractice claims can be limited to only two years, though. It is best to consult with an attorney as soon as possible after an accident that leaves you injured.
-
What Damages are Recoverable for Insurance Bad Faith?Generally, the damages include all harm done by the insurer’s failure to perform the adjustment of a loss “in good faith.” In some cases, your own attorney’s fees are recoverable, too. In rare instances of egregious and outrageous misconduct, punitive damages may be recoverable. If you are sued because the insurer did not settle with a claimant when “it could and should have done so,” then the insurer, not you, may be required to pay the total amount of the judgment, and not just the policy limits you purchased.
-
What Should I Do If I Believe I Have a Claim for Insurance Bad Faith?You should not hesitate to seek the assistance of a qualified and competent attorney from Gunn Law Group, P.A. by calling (813) 993-1448.
-
How Does an Insurance Company Commit "Bad Faith" That Warrants a Lawsuit?When an insurance company fails to honor the obligations in an insurance contract or fails to perform some other responsibility imposed by law, then you may have a case against the insurance company for “bad faith.” Bad faith insurance conduct can include the insurer’s failure to settle a claim made against you if you are at fault in an accident, efforts to delay the payment of claims, failure to investigate claims properly and in a timely manner, wrongful denial of claims, failure to pay the real value of your claims, or another failure to recognize rights under an insurance policy. Insurance bad faith can be “first party” (money due to you) or “third party” (money paid to an injured person to avoid the insured being sued).
-
Will I Owe Gunn Law Group, P.A. Anything If I Lose?If we are retained on a full contingency fee basis and do not obtain a recovery for you, then you do not pay us a fee for our services or repay any advanced costs associated with your casework.
-
How Does Gunn Law Group, P.A. Arrange Payments for Its Legal Services?Once we have accepted a case, we offer contingency fee agreements to the majority of our clients. A contingency fee is a fee that is charged as a percentage of the total recovery obtained, and it is not collected unless we win a recovery, such as a settlement agreement or jury award. This percentage is explained and agreed upon before we begin to work for you. The percentage may vary depending on the type of claim, the stage at which we are retained to help you, and the overall complexity of your claim. In Florida, contingency fee contracts are regulated by the Florida Supreme Court and attorneys are prohibited from charging an excessive fee. We encourage you to read the Clients Bill of Rights, which is a disclosure form required by The Florida Bar for clients retaining an attorney on a contingent fee contract.

Why We Are Different
There are many personal injury law firms in Florida, but not all of them accept high-stakes catastrophic injury, medical malpractice, and insurance bad faith claims. Even fewer do so with a history of success and a trophy case’s worth of professional awards for excellence and case results. At Gunn Law Group, P.A. in Tampa, we are proud to be different from other law firms due to our experience, tenacity, and professional recognitions that highlight our commitment to our clients.
Our law firm and attorneys on our team have earned many titles and awards throughout the years. To name only a few, we are honored to be able to display badges and plaques from Florida Super Lawyers®, The Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum®, Florida’s “Best Lawyers®” by The Best Lawyers in America, and many more. We have also earned an AV Preeminent® Rating by Martindale-Hubbell®. What you need to know as our client is that we have what it takes to accept and win difficult cases, and we have the professional awards and medals to prove it.
Statewide Representation for Insurance Cases
Gunn Law Group, P.A. is one of a slim few law firms in Florida capable of accepting and litigating insurance bad faith cases on behalf of policyholders throughout the entire state. In fact, about 90% of the cases we work on here are referrals from other law firms across Florida, marking as a testament to our skills and reputation. If you need to stand up to an insurance company that is trying to wrongfully deny, delay, or undervalue your claim, then stand on our shoulders to stand a better chance of success.
Insurance defense attorneys see us as fierce, aggressive negotiators and litigators. However, our clients see a different side of our lawyers. We take a personalized, compassionate approach whenever we help a new client in need. Your case will never get passed around legal assistants and you will never be left out of the loop as it develops. We make a point to connect each client with a real attorney working on their case, who will act as their main point of contact. When you are part of our pride, you are never alone!
