Montreal—The people at ClaimsPro extend their deepest sympathies to the residents of Lac Mégantic in Quebec following the terrible train tragedy that shocked the beautiful town early Saturday July 6, 2013. Senior members of ClaimsPro’s Catastrophic Response Team are already on the ground working with local officials and residents to begin handling residential and commercial property claims.

Last Saturday a train carrying crude oil derailed, setting off a series of explosions in the downtown area. The explosions wreaked devastation on a significant number of businesses, homes, and residents of the town.

ClaimsPro offers its deepest condolences to all residents of Lac Mégantic, especially to the families of those who perished in this tragedy.

“We’ve made the decision to handle direct damage claims, rather than liability claims, so that we can focus our efforts and resources on helping the home and business owners in Lac Mégantic and avoid any conflicts of interest” shared Suzie Godmer, ClaimsPro’s Vice President of Operations in Quebec. “We’ve mobilized our resources and have full capacity to support our clients and the residents of this town.” Godmer is coordinating ClaimsPro’s adjusting services for the catastrophe.

ClaimsPro has already deployed several of its major loss adjusters from its Quebec City and Sherbrooke branches to handle large commercial and personal lines property claims that have been assigned by well-known Quebec insurers. ClaimsPro’s subrogation team and Special Risk Division (SRD) are also in place to provide support and expertise as well.
