McLarens Canada renamed ‘Granite Claims Solutions’

Toronto, August 1, 2011: As of August 1, McLarens Canada will be renamed Granite Claims Solutions. www.graniteclaims.com.

McLarens Canada began 35 years ago in Toronto as Ponton Coleshill Insurance Adjusters. Since then, the company has grown to over 500 employees and provides claims services across Canada from almost 50 branch offices. The company is one of the fastest growing claims adjusting companies in Canada.

As we continue to grow and evolve the one thing that remains constant is our commitment to our clients.”
