A working agreement has been established between insurance claims company Fitzgerald Consulting and loss adjuter Adjusting Solutions, led by Tom Battell and David Martin.

The companies said they will work together on strategic projects from 1 February, 2010. In a joint statement the companies said they share the same ambitions and ethos and are highly complementary in their business activities.

Fitzgerald handles major losses and adjusting solutions internationally including high-end professional indemnity and products losses, business interruption and other major losses.

Bev FitzGerald, managing director of Fitzgerald, commented: "My colleagues and I are delighted to be working closely with Tom and David, who we have known and respected for many years. They focus on different areas to us and, together, we offer an expanded and reinforced service to all our clients and the wider market."

Mr Battell commented: "It is a real privilege for us to work with colleagues at Fitzgerald. They are a leading industry name and we value their integrity and ability. As “front-end adjusters” our skills are becoming increasingly relevant in the consulting role where clients seek best practice combined with technical excellence. Working together will provide a broader technical base whilst maintaining the directional approach that high level issues demand.’
