Can a claims adjuster be sued for causing stress?

In some cases, a claims adjuster can be sued for causing stress if the stress can be proven to have caused physical or emotional harm to the claimant. To succeed in such a lawsuit, the claimant would need to show that:

* The claims adjuster's actions were intentional or reckless

* The claimant suffered actual damages, such as physical pain, emotional distress, or financial loss

* The claims adjuster's actions were the proximate cause of the claimant's damages

It's important to note that lawsuits against claims adjusters for causing stress are relatively rare, and it can be difficult to prove the necessary elements of the case. However, if you believe that a claims adjuster has caused you stress that has resulted in physical or emotional harm, you may want to speak to an attorney to discuss your legal options.
