Mark Lampkin, a Chester based personal injury lawyer, has welcomed news that MP’s are backing calls to ban insurers from selling customer data relating to personal injury claims.
Mark explains – “I’ve been campaigning to ban referral fees for a long time and I’m very pleased to see government backing for this. At Lampkins, we’ve grown our business through recommendations from our clients and not through the practice of purchasing cases from insurance companies. Our focus has been on providing the very best service and representation for our clients. The news from the goverment’s Transport Select Committee today is very welcome and I’m also glad to see a push towards raising the threshold for receiving compensation in whiplash cases which is something else I’ve strongly advocated”.
