HHH action after MLG collapses

Leading High Street intermediary Hill House Hammond is drafting in staff from around the country to fill the gap left by the collapse of its first response motor claims partner, Motor & Legal Group.

The company has been handling claims registration and repair services for HHH under a long-term agreement, which was due to run until February next year.

It operated a fleet of 2,500 vehicles, mainly leased from Perry Group, funded by 25 finance companies. Repair services will ultimately be handled by HHH's parent, Norwich Union.
