New deal is far from a car crash

Accident Claims Scotland (ACS), the Paisley-based car crash management firm, has signed a deal with an English peer that it expects will add at least 50 per cent to its turnover.

Vehicle Accident Managers has chosen the firm to handle all its accident and personal injury claims north of the Border.

Martin Haggarty, managing director at ACS, believes the contract could add £500,000 to his company’s £1 million turnover.

ACS said it was now looking to expand its network of car repair centres on the back of the deal. The company, which was formed in 2003, handles car repairs, provides replacement vehicles and manages compensation claims following accidents.
