Protecting vital operations

At CIR, we provide a lawyer-led TPA solution built for the unique pressures of the utilities and FM sectors. We manage the complex intersection of workforce safety, asset protection, and contractual accountability to keep your operations resilient.


Strategic oversight for complex risk


Our expertise spans the specialised exposures inherent to large-scale infrastructure and maintenance. We manage employers' liability for high-risk environments like confined spaces, alongside public liability for third-party property damage or injuries during works. We also handle motor and fleet for service vehicles, environmental and regulatory risks, and contractual disputes. Every matter is overseen by legal professionals who understand how SLA failures or indemnity clauses impact your bottom line.

Operational focused claims process

Recovery-focused resolution

We treat your budget with the same care you do. We are relentless in pursuing subrogation against negligent contractors or third-parties to offset indemnity spend.

Legal defence from day one

Our lawyers conduct early screenings to flag contractual obligations and indemnity clauses, ensuring the right party is held responsible.
By building "litigation-ready" evidence packs immediately, we strengthen your defensibility against staged losses and ensure compliance with strict sector regulations.

We would be delighted to hear about your current arrangements, present challenges and timeframe for an opportunity for us to introduce the services of CIR and how we can add value to your business.
