About us

The Prince Edward Claims Service Team

PECS is a locally owned and operated independent insurance adjusting company founded in 2000. It is co-owned and operated by its two senior adjusters, Randy Driscoll and Richard Arsenault.

Both partners are local PEI residents with more than fifty years of combined insurance claims adjusting experience. Their combination of vast claims’ experience and connections provides many benefits for their clients.

Because of its central office location, PECS is able to effectively service the entire province with the furthest point in the province less than two hours from their office.

PECS provides professional value-added claims service to our clients who include national insurers, provincial and municipal governments and self-insurers. We have many long term clients who have trusted us with their claims handling needs since our company opening in 2000.
