By law, public authorities are responsible for the safety of citizens and property on their territory. Recourse is therefore frequent and the stakes of claims can be particularly high. This is why it is essential for local authorities to take out a number of insurance policies and guarantees. Analysis, research into the causes of all claims, identification of responsibilities, management of disputes and conflicts, remedial solutions, legal support... the success of an expertise requires a perfect understanding of the issues specific to public bodies as well as a mastery of administrative and insurance law.

The loss adjuster should manage each case in a customised, efficient way, to best handle the many claims that arise every year. Analysing, investigating causes of losses, determining liability, managing disputes and conflicts, remedial solutions, legal support, etc… the success of this comprehensive service requires a perfect understanding of the challenges unique to government agencies. This understanding also includes thorough knowledge of administrative and insurance law. 

All of this work is done by an organisation that is both methodical and decidedly people-focused in managing disputes. These are Stelliant Loss Adjusting’s commitments to local governments.

Public space and its ever-present risk

Work done by government administrations (building a library, working on roads, renovating a university, etc.) can cause collateral damage: damage to surrounding residences or damage to an individual’s vehicle hit by a lorry when leaving a work site, for example. 

As managers and contracting parties, entities like a city mayor, a regional council president or a minister can all be held liable for these losses. 

In addition, a range of different events can cause other losses. These can include lighting hitting the belltower of a church damaging the roof and the clock’s electrical system, a dustbin fire in a reception hall rented for the weekend, or a council member assaulted in front of City Hall while trying to calm an argument. 

Types of losses within a city and the surrounding area can run the gamut. 

And yet, whatever the nature or the complexity of the case, Stelliant loss adjusters assess the damage and do a loss adjustment to identify which party is truly liable. Either the company that performed the work or the government itself could be held liable. If needed, the government could take action against the company that did the work.
