You may be able to but it isn't very likely.
A rejected claim is when the insurance company determines that the claim does not meet the policy requirements from the start, so it is not processed at all. A denied claim is when the insurance company processes the claim but decides not to pay for it, usually due to not meeting specific coverage criteria.
If a claim is submitted after the filing limit and the member is not liable, the claim may be denied by the insurance company due to the late submission. This means that the insurance company may not cover the expenses or damages associated with the claim.
In Virginia (and in most, if not all, states) there is an insurance bureau (http://www.scc.virginia.gov/division/boi/) to which you can file a complaint if you feel your claim was wrongly denied. Theoretically, they provide some regulation of the insurance industry and protect consumers to some extent.

It depends on why they didn't pay the claim. If you have the coverage and followed the requirements, like making a police report, cooperating with the insurance company as well as the police then you should have no problem with a claim, if it was in fact a theft. Otherwise you can always sue the company or file a complaint with your state department of insurance if you feel you were denied coverage you paid for.
When applying for life insurance you need to always answer the applications correctly and honestly or a claim may be denied. If you purchase new life insurance you do not need to go back to your already in force insurance company and advise them.
A claim is a liability on part of the insurance company. If a customer makes a claim it means that the insurance company has to pay the customer for the amount is eligible to claim and hence it is a expenditure on the balance sheets of the insurance company.
If they denied that claim for cause, such as fraud, then there is nothing you can do. If they did not have cause, you can try contacting the department of insurance in your state. That is of course, as long as you had comphrensive coverage on the policy. If you did not have coverage, they do not have to pay for anything.
Under normal circumstances, no. A life insurance company will pay the proceeds to the named beneficiary.
That's not very likely. The insurance company does not file your claim, they accept your claim notice from you. You have to file your claim with the company, not the other way around.
An insurance denial attorney will fight for you, should your claim be denied by your insurance carrier.
Usually in a bad faith insurance claim the insurance company is in the wrong. A bad faith claim is when an insurance company fails to pay out what was promised on the claim. More than likely you could sue the insurance company and have a chance at winning your case.
