The $2.5 million ABC Legal Services class action settlement received preliminary approval from the court on May 28, 2026. The deal covers all United States residents whose personal information was potentially compromised during the data breach discovered by ABC Legal Services in November 2024, including all who received notice of the incident, as identified by the class list.

ClassAction.org will update this page when the court-approved website for the ABC Legal Services settlement is live.

ABC Legal settlement class members who file a valid, timely claim form can receive up to $5,000 for out-of-pocket losses incurred on or after August 7, 2024 and traceable to the data breach. This benefit covers losses arising from fraud or identity theft and the costs of credit monitoring or identity theft protection services, freezing or unfreezing credit, credit reports, and more.

Class members must submit proof, such as receipts, to receive an out-of-pocket loss payment.

Additionally, class members can file a claim to receive a pro rata cash payment of approximately $50, with no proof required. The final amount of each class member’s cash payout may increase to a maximum of $450 or decrease, depending on the total number of claims filed, among other factors.

In addition to monetary relief, all class members can file a claim form to receive two years of IDX credit monitoring services, which includes one-bureau credit monitoring, dark web monitoring, and identity theft insurance.

The court will determine whether to grant final approval to the ABC Legal Services data breach settlement following a hearing on October 26, 2026. Compensation will begin to be distributed to class members only after final approval is granted and any appeals are resolved.

The ABC Legal Services class action lawsuit claimed that the legal support company failed to implement proper cybersecurity measures to safeguard the private information in its care, which allegedly led to a data breach on or around August 7, 2024.

Per court documents, information potentially compromised during the breach included names, Social Security numbers, driver’s license and government-issued ID numbers, financial information, health insurance information and dates of birth.
