QUEBEC – ClaimsPro/IndemniPro today announced that it has acquired one of Quebec’s leading loss adjusting firms, Allen & Fugère Inc. (Allen & Fugère).

Allen & Fugère has been providing adjusting services throughout Quebec for more than 55 years. The company boasts an impressive roster of 10 preeminent insurance professionals including Senior Adjusters and Investigators. Allen & Fugère has developed a stellar reputation across Quebec for their Special Investigations Unit. The Unit works to identify and investigate fraudulent claims through preliminary interview and statement-taking techniques. This capability both complements and enhances ClaimsPro/IndemniPro’s existing service offering, and positions ClaimsPro/IndemniPro as an expanded presence in Trois-Rivières while increasing its geographical footprint within Quebec. The addition of the Allen & Fugère team means ClaimsPro/IndemniPro now has 140 Adjusters working throughout the province.

“I am pleased and proud to welcome the Allen & Fugère team to ClaimsPro/IndemniPro,” states Suzie Godmer, ClaimsPro/IndemniPro’s Senior Vice President, Quebec. “Allen & Fugère has been the leading provider of adjusting services to Trois-Rivières since 1960 and is one of the most respected providers in the province of Quebec. This partnership will not only strengthen ClaimsPro/IndemniPro’s presence in that region, it will enhance our collective capability.”

René Paillé and Ghyslain Morinville, Senior Adjusters and Presidents of Allen & Fugère, will continue to provide the expert services their clients have come to know. Mr. Paillé will still lead the Special Investigations Unit in Quebec and report to Ms. Godmer. Mr. Morinville will serve as Branch Manager in Trois-Rivières and report to Pierre Boulianne, ClaimsPro/IndemniPro’s Regional District Manager, Quebec.

“We are excited to bring our collective expertise to ClaimsPro/IndemniPro,” state Mr. Paillé and Mr. Morinville. “We look forward to combining our services with ClaimsPro/IndemniPro’s technological capability and geographical footprint.”

“This merger has strong significance for our organization,” said Ross Betteridge, President of ClaimsPro/IndemniPro. “We have always prioritized providing comprehensive local and regional representation alongside the resources of a national company. We identified Allen & Fugère as an organization that shares our corporate values and philosophy while providing enhanced services that complement our existing offering. Bringing in Allen & Fugère gives us important regional scale and expertise; when combined with ClaimsPro/IndemniPro’s industry leading technology platform, this positions us to provide the best products and services for our customers.”
