A: A New Hampshire attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for two weeks. As a general premise nationwide, insurance carriers do not have a statutory obligation to settle all claims. They have an obligation of conducting the claims process in good faith. But it is not necessarily bad faith to refuse to settle a claim for a figure demanded by the policyholder. In general nationwide, the options in such instances generally include coming to an agreement... or proceeding with suit or arbitration. There could be other options or issues under New Hampshire law - a local attorney could advise best on those. These are only generalities. Good luck
