NAPERVILLE, Ill., Jan. 4, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Vericlaim—a subsidiary of Sedgwick Claims Management Services, Inc., and global provider of loss adjusting and claims management services—has acquired First Choice Repair, a managed repair network of high-quality contractors servicing damaged commercial and residential properties.
First Choice Repair, based in Jacksonville, Florida, built the claims industry's first proprietary restoration and repair network. Through the First Choice Repair network, hundreds of credentialed contractors, many of whom operate in the roofing, siding and gutter sector, deliver restoration and repair services to customers across the U.S.
"Vericlaim's reputation in the claims industry was built on expertise in field adjusting for complex, high-severity property loss claims," said Michael Arbour, CEO of Vericlaim, Inc.
