We have launched a significant number of group actions for data breaches, leaks and hacks in the UK, with these types of cases now making up for the majority of the large actions that we pursue for people.<\/p>\n

We do not expect the rate of new incidents to slow down, and we expect that we will continue to represent significant numbers of people for privacy compensation cases. Given that one small issue or a single cyberattack could affect potentially millions of people, it stands to reason as to why group and multi-party cases now commonly involve some form of privacy matter.<\/p>\n

To discuss privacy compensation cases for group and multi-party actions, please do not hesitate to contact our team here now for free, no-obligation legal advice.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Increasing group actions for data breaches, leaks and hacks<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We have been working in the niche and complex area of law for group and multi-party actions for over a decade. During this time, we have launched a significant number of group actions for data breaches alone, and we are now representing people in close to 60 group\/multi-party cases. These consist of thousands of individuals who have been affected by large-scale data breaches, leaks and hacks, and it seems that the flow of new events is unstoppable.<\/p>\n

What has not helped in recent years was the coronavirus pandemic that forced businesses to adapt and change the way they worked. This exposed security flaws that hackers were able to exploit at a time when systems and servers could be particularly vulnerable from people having to shift from working in an office to connecting from home.<\/p>\n

Over the last few years, we have launched group actions for data breaches for those affected by the TalkTalk cyberattack<\/strong><\/a> of 2015, the Equifax hack<\/strong><\/a> of 2017, the British Airways data breaches<\/strong> of 2018, and the Virgin Media data leak<\/strong><\/a> of 2020. These are just some of the high-profile incidents that we represent thousands of people for who are engaged in claims for compensation, and we do not expect that these are the last of their kind. We expect more breaches, leaks and hacks to occur in the coming years as cybercriminals continue to enhance the way they work, and as society becomes more digitised.<\/p>\n

Events this year alone<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We have taken forward a number of new group actions for data breaches, leaks and hacks this year alone, which are in addition to the over 50 we had already previously launched before the start of this year. Over the last few months, there have been a number of incidents that we have agreed to take legal action for, including those affected by the Acorn Recruitment cyberattack, the Eurocell data breach, the Plex cyber incident, and the Arden University data breach.<\/p>\n

These are just a few of the new actions that we have launched, and they go to show that there seems to be a constant flow of new data breach incidents occurring all the time. Whether they are occurring through cyberattacks which organisations can be vulnerable to, or whether it is accidents or events that lead to the inadvertent disclosure of information, it is important that those affected know their rights to claim compensation.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Free, no-obligation legal advice now<\/strong><\/h3>\n

If you have been affected by a data breach, leak or hack, you could be entitled to claim compensation<\/strong><\/a> and we may be able to represent you on a No Win, No Fee basis for group and multi-party cases.<\/p>\n
