Contract Awarded to Anglian Start Up


Ipswich Based Fleet Accident Management Company Out Manoeuvres Established Firms.

Ipswich, 16 October 2006: This week Ipswich based accident management company, Countrywide Accident Assistance Limited (CAA), received news that it has won its biggest contract to date from internationally renowned law firm, Eversheds.

Eversheds who have approximately 30 offices around the world, originally managed Employers and Public Liability claims on behalf of a number of Blue Chip companies, but recently introduced a motor claims handling service to their UK based clients to provide them with a 'one stop shop' option for all their claims handling solutions. With an already stable client base from the retail sector, Eversheds is predicting that the introduction of the motor claims division will attract interest from other areas of business, including the newly secured, non exclusive claims handling deal with Mitsui Sumitomo Insurance (London Management) Limited.

The news from Eversheds has had a positive impact on CAA Network Repairers who have already seen an increase in work volumes with a substantial growth anticipated over the next five years. "This is an exciting and substantial contract for Countrywide Accident Assistance", said David Quance, Director at CAA. "We have been very fortunate and although we are new and still in our start-up phase, CAA offers our market a service and quality never seen before in this industry." The three Directors of CAA state that it is the attention to detail and the unrivalled quality of service that has caused the company to catapult itself ahead of the competition in the accident management industry. So much so that the company is growing in to a robust business, which is already looking, to expand in office space and will be launching an intensive recruitment drive in the region in the very near future.
