Gallagher Bassett expands legal capabilities with acquisition of Caytons

Gallagher Bassett (GB), a provider of claims and risk management solutions, has strengthened its legal capabilities with the acquisition of Caytons Law LLP (Caytons).

This acquisition enhances GB’s litigation offerings and complements the existing expertise of its in-house law firm, Strata Solicitors.

The combined experience of Caytons and Strata Solicitors brings decades of litigation expertise to the UK market. As part of the GB family, these legal teams can now draw on GB’s comprehensive claims management resources and extensive industry knowledge.

With this expansion, GB offers a robust suite of legal services, including recovery and subrogation, coverage advice, and specialised pre- and post-defence litigation support for a diverse range of clients such as corporates, captives, carriers, and MGAs.

Sam Moore, Managing Partner of Caytons, and Chris Sturridge-Packer, Director of Strata Solicitors, emphasised that GB’s commitment to sustainable growth and service excellence will enable them to deliver superior outcomes for clients.

“In joining the GB team, Caytons will have access to the resources and knowledge to continue our growth and be backed by a stable, expert partner with a strong presence in the UK market,” said Moore.

Sturridge-Packer added that the enhancement of GB’s legal solutions portfolio addresses the increasing complexity and varied demands of claims management in the UK.

He continued: “Claims requiring litigation or legal intervention are continuing to grow in both volume and complexity, which means selecting a partner who can expertly advise and guide your company from first notice of loss through to resolution is paramount.”

“The wealth of expertise within our company is bolstered by GB’s entrepreneurial approach. This means that our clients can always expect our team to deliver value; claim after claim, year after year.”

Moore added: “GB is a global company which brings security and prestige, but at its core it remains a company that rewards entrepreneurship. We are looking forward to learning from Chris and the broader GB team and, ultimately, challenging ourselves to deliver even more exceptional service.”
