The Ott Cone & Redpath class action settlement received preliminary approval from the court on August 12, 2025 and covers anyone who received notice of the data breach from Ott Cone.
The court-approved website for the Ott Cone & Redpath settlement can be found at OCRDataIncident.com.
Ott Cone settlement class members who submit a timely, valid claim form will be able to receive three years of one-bureau credit monitoring services, as well as either a cash payment of $50 or up to $2,500 in reimbursement for documented, out-of-pocket expenses related to the Ott Cone & Redpath data breach.
Per the settlement document, out-of-pocket expenses cannot have already been reimbursed by another source, and may include:
- Fees related to a credit freeze;
- Costs of obtaining a credit report;
- Card replacement fees;
- Late fees;
- Over-limit fees;
- Bank or credit card fees;
- Costs associated with up to one year of credit monitoring or identity theft insurance purchased between June 2, 2024 and December 15, 2025 as a response to the data breach;
- Interest and fees on payday loans taken as a result of the data breach; and
- Costs of postage, mileage or other incidental expenses resulting from the data breach.
In order to receive reimbursement, class members must submit documentation supporting each out-of-pocket, data breach-related expense they seek to claim.
Expense reimbursement and the $50 cash payout are mutually exclusive, meaning class members can only choose one option to claim. The credit monitoring service may be claimed alongside either of these options, the class action settlement website says.
Both the reimbursement and the cash payment may be subject to a decrease on a pro rata, or equal share, basis, depending on the total number of valid claims filed, the website adds.
To file a claim form online, class members can visit this page of the settlement website and log in with the unique CPT ID and passcode found in their copy of the settlement notice.
Alternatively, a PDF of the claim form is available to print, fill out and mail back to the address listed at the bottom of the first page.
All claim forms must be submitted online or postmarked by December 10, 2025.
A hearing is scheduled for December 15, 2025 to determine whether the settlement will receive final court approval. Settlement benefits will begin to be distributed to class members only after final approval has been granted and any appeals have been resolved.
The Ott Cone & Redpath class action lawsuit claimed that a cyberattack on or around June 3, 2024 gave unauthorized cybercriminals access to the law firm’s files, which included the names, Social Security numbers, dates of birth, health insurance information, medical treatment information and financial account information of approximately 34,457 people.
