Data breach disclosures and claiming compensation

Data breach disclosures can come as quite a surprise and cause worry for those who receive them when you are told your personal information has been misused or exposed. We are here to help you.

We know that most organisations will issue advice regarding steps you can take to protect yourself after a data breach, and things you may need to keep an eye on, and ways to be vigilant. It is also useful to know that the GDPR could entitle the victim of a data breach to recover compensation for the distress caused by the loss of control of personal information, which is where we come in.

We may be able to represent you for a legal case on a No Win, No Fee basis – you can contact our team for free, no-obligation legal advice here now.

Confidential adoption information – £15,000 settlement
