Loss adjuster QuestGates has expanded the scope of its in-house capabilities with the acquisition of Toppings Forensic Accountants, which has an established focus on the insurance sector. Manchester-based Toppings will continue to operate under its own brand.

Their expertise complements our expanding service offerings, marking another key milestone in our journey. We are excited to be entering a new specialism and continuing to scale our operation with services that benefit our existing client base.”
