Unwanted Telephone Calls and Texts

Cold calling for personal injury claims is tasteless and intrusive and can exploit vulnerable people. Solicitors are banned from making cold calls and sending nuisance text messages. Claims Management Companies (CMCs) are not banned from using cold calling and texting to drum up business and personal injury claims.

The Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL) believes that CMCs should be banned from making cold calls and sending nuisance text messages. If you have had an unwanted call or text about a personal injury claim, please contact APIL. The information will be reported to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) to investigate.  APIL can be contacted as follows: –
