unlawful disclosure of accident data

Unlawful Disclosure of Accident Data

The unlawful disclosure of accident data has been a problem that has been ongoing for many years, including since the referral fee system ban in 2013.

We are proud to have never engaged in the market for buying and selling claims, with our clients coming directly to us. We never believed it was a good system, which is why we avoided it. We understand the distress that can be caused and how people can feel harassed when information about accident data is being passed around.

Any information disclosure that is a breach of the GDPR could allow victims to recover compensation for any distress caused by the loss of control of their personal information. You can talk to our team here now for free, no-obligation legal advice.
