Claims Handling

We offer accident management, claims handling, and other support services via our sister company and key sub-contractor Linkfield Accident Management Ltd (LAM).

Since then, LAM has developed a first class dedicated claims management service which today operates extremely efficiently for our NHS and Central Government clients.
