MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Global Risk Solutions, Inc., a leading provider of a diverse range of claims adjusting and environmental risk management solutions, has significantly strengthened its complex and major risk capabilities with the appointment of a London team of 13 specialist adjusters and technicians.
