In addition to suing for a breach of contract, you might be able to bring a tort claim seeking damages based upon the insurer's bad faith handling of the claim.

Q: If my insurance company denies my claim, do I have any rights?

A: If an insurance company fails or refuses to honor its contract and pay a valid claim, you have the right to bring a civil action for damages against that insurance company.
