Spencers Solicitors in the UK have launched a microsite that aims to draw attention to the practice of personal injury cases being regularly auctioned off to the highest bidder by insurance companies. For years, insurers have been selling personal injury cases to solicitors for 'referral fees,' essentially a commission which lawyers must pay to represent individual claimants.
Injury Auction includes additional information and an interactive game where you get to throw auction hammers at the bidders, all designed to shine the spotlight on how the system works and encouraging consumers to challenge their insurer to end the practice immediately.
