---

Devonshire Claims Services ("DCS") are excited to announce the extension of their southern hemisphere services with the opening of a new DCS Asia Pacific office in Brisbane.

As well as providing more localised coverage for DCS' clients in Queensland it will result in an increase in the lines managed by DCS Asia Pacific with the addition of Stuart Greaves as Divisional Director in Brisbane with primary responsibility for DCS' property claims portfolio in the region.

This expansion represents the 6th office in DCS's global expansion with specialist claims services already being provided to the insurance industry from offices in London, Chicago, Sydney, Hong Kong and Swindon.

DCS Asia Pacific's Managing Director, Jon Sitwell believes that the group's relentless focus on recruiting specialist staff with specific industry background is the key component in its continued expansion. He added "in this case, Stuart's many years of managing claims in the London market allows us to assure our Lloyd's market clients that we have genuine experience and an intrinsic understanding of the requisite standards and service requirements of Lloyd's. That knowledge combined with commercially focused claims staff and bespoke IT support gives DCS an ability to satisfy those demands that is unique in the Australian claims market".

Triton Global is delighted to announce the latest addition to the Group. Karen Angelbeck, Reed Millsaps, James Ruiz and Kathy Solomon have joined DCS North America, LLC. Based in Illinois, the DCS-NA team will be focused on handling professional liability claims and providing risk management services throughout North America.

The team comprises highly experienced claims managers and lawyers with proven track records in the professional liability arena.

Devonshire Claims Services Limited is now widely known in the insurance market as 'DCS'. It was founded in 1998 with one client and and has since then acquired a broad following in the insurance sector as an out-sourced Claims Administrator handling portfolios of claims in a wide number of insurance sectors. Its initial expertise lay in the professional indemnity sector but it now encompasses Liability, Energy & Marine and Financial Lines.

It is managed by two leading figures in the insurance market, Neil McManus and Neil Sully and has a global reach as a result of its subsidiaries in Australia, Hong Kong and North America. Other operations outside the UK are also planned.

At the heart of the DCS operation is a state of the art, paperless claims extranet designed for it by another Group company, 3Sixty Systems.

3Sixty Systems Limited is an IT software designer with a niche specialism in the creation and development of systems, including claims systems and rating engines, geared to companies in the insurance sector. Its clients in that sector include leading insurers and brokers.

In addition to its insurance related specialisms, it is the designer and developer of a number of systems and applications including CRM products and recruitment engines and provides these and bespoke services to a wide range of commercial sector businesses.

Part of the Group since 2006, 3Sixty is led by its founder Ashley Moss and its principal office is in Leeds.

Robin Simon LLP is a leading professional indemnity defence firm. As the trusted advisor and defence counsel to professional firms and those insuring them, it has been described as the ultimate niche practice. The firm’s objectives are uncomplicated: its lawyers simply act for and advise professional firms; they handle the defence of claims against professional firms on the instructions of insurers; and they do not undertake claimant work.

This specialist practice also provides advice on insurance law and policy wordings and has a dozen partners, led by Michael Robin and David Simon. It has long-established offices in London, Manchester, Birmingham, and Leeds.

Walsh PI Limited is also a niche player in the field of professional indemnity. Its team of adjusters are all holders of a second qualification including Chartered Insurer, Chartered Surveyor and Chartered Civil Engineer. They receive instructions to act in the investigation of professional indemnity claims and the defence of professional firms, particularly those in the construction sector.

Walsh PI is led by Mike Walsh, who founded the business in 1998 and it works closely with Robin Simon to provide an integrated "expert-led" service aimed particularly at resolution of professional indemnity claims before litigation. Walsh PI is based in Leeds and London but habitually handles investigations in all parts of the UK. Its clients are principally insurers and large self-insured businesses.

The company's administrative offices are situated at:

Triton Global Limited
